Today's project
Before
After
Upgraded my brakes using the 2 piece GT rotors and Porterfield R4S pads all the way around . After a quick break in they feel pretty good and no where near the dust the OE pads throw

No more rusted hubs.. that's the best.
Did you get these? https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/mer...mbo-2304211212
I'm also considering changing to these once mine wear out.

Yes I got them from FCP Euro but they are the exact same rotor found on the GT . I think they look better and I haven't noticed any real difference in feel and anything I do feel would be related to the pads more than the rotors . I got tired of looking at the rusty front rotors and these were a way better deal. Mine weren't even worn out but I wanted less brake dust so I changed all the rotors & pads

The factory S rotors are 1 piece solid ...not "floating" as mentioned. The GT rotors ,such as the type I installed from FCP Euro, are floating 2 piece rotors .....

I just went with the stock rotors and Porterfield R4S pads , there really isn't a rotor upgrade for the rear unless you go with a complete aftermarket kit inc calipers

Did you happen to weigh both rotors before fitting?
I think I’ll be up for rotors soon.

Sorry ...I was away so wasn't able to answer . The GT rotors are definitely lighter and the size is the same as stock
