Not sure where you saw that? I see:

"Tipping the scales at a little more than 15 lbs. each, that's a savings of nearly 5 lbs. versus the stock 20lb each for 370Z sport rear rotors."

Edit: Yeah I see it now at the bottom, looks like they copied that from their 2-piece front rotor ad.

Wow glad to see these finally available. And I don't see the notes like on the racing brakes rears that have you grinding down anything to fit. Guess I'll be doing brakes soon.

... That's 1/3 off...

I'd hope for $1000, but hell, now that I know the quality of their fronts, I'll buy the rears at full price. I called John 10 times already
