I've read through the suspension forums extensively and the general consensus regarding brake rotors is just to get <insert company here> blanks because drilled are crap and slotted are more of a track-day type thing.
On another note it also seems to be commonly accepted that it's much better to drop unsprung weight on your car than it is to drop sprung weight.
With that in mind and given that rotors are unsprung weight it stands to reason that lighter rotors would be beneficial to the car's performance would they not?
I just ordered the Wilwood BBK (they don't make kits for the rear, I asked) and noticed that even with the larger diameter rotors, the BBK rotors weigh less (forget by how much) than stock rotors and it got me wondering.
I need new rotors for the rear of my car and was wondering if anyone knows of a company that makes undrilled/unslotted rotors for our car that are lighter than the stock/blank rotors?
