Default Is anybody running light rotors

Hi!

I'm considering on buying light rotors in front and rear, any ideas?

I have been reading about wilwood having something for our cars.

other than the stock pads, the car's rotors are just fine.... I am not sure how a lighter rotor would gain you anything unless you are drag racing looking to lose some weight. I changed the rotors on the roadster, only to realize the rotors are fine, so I just changed pads on the coupe. I did put metal lines on, and changed to high performance brake fluid with the higher boiling points. This mod is the game changer with the brakes... Both cars have ceramic pads.

Now a caliper change is a game changer as well, but I have found these brakes do very well with the right pads, lines, and fluid. Rotors are heavy, but substantial is good when heating things up... I put drilled on more for looks than performance...there is a lot of debate on drilled/slotted rotors... I have one car with and one without, and I cannot tell any difference in them...both have been to the dragon and ran hard, both brake very well with no fade, or heat related problems... anyway good luck with whatever direction you take...many opinions on the subject...the pads definitely need to go...
