Default Baer rotors

I had purchased stoptech drilled slotted rotors and they are heavy and can easily be felt when accelerating. I'm looking to replace them with Baer 2 piece. From what im reading the fronts are 1 pound lighter than stock? For people that have these rotors are they aleast the same weight as stock 18#. Thanks

I can’t give you the exact weight but they are definitely lighter than stock. I’ve had Baer brakes on three different cars and all of them being two piece rotors and they were all lighter than stock. Baer two piece rotors are the only way to go .

Yes 14” front and rear. I bought the 6 piston Pro+ set up for all 4 corners
