Cool...same for the rear bolts?

Got the rotors on the front BST wheel. I am going to have to get some lighter rotors eventually.....

What's the weight of the stock S4 wheel?

AFAIK, yeah.
The S4 service manual doesn't differentiate front to rear.

IMO, the only ones that are enough lighter to be worth buying are the CMC BrakeTech.

Um, I was gonna ask *you*.  [laugh]

I've got a weight number that I got Years Ago from Strati on TOB.
Just can't put my hands on it right now...

The ductile irons are lighter than the stockers by over half a pound IIRC, was awhile ago I put them on...
