Got few more sets left. After these are gone, I won't be making anymore. For those that got them, enjoy the upgrade. Would love to hear more feedback on the breaking power of the 390mm

Has anyone noticed any difference in the added unsprung weight? I actually don't know what the difference is but I suspect it is several pounds. I am wondering, for me, if less unsprung weight for ride/handling is preferred since I do drive on unsmooth roads. Obviously the 390mm rotor has a looks advantage and must have a braking performance advantage but I'm not sure that I "need" either of those things. I suspect that the people who care about unsprung weight care less about looks and the people who care about looks don't really care about unsprung weight....
I also have the heavier base 10 spoke wheels, so there's that, too. I guess the ultimate upgrade would be to a lighter forged wheel (or the optional AMG one), but, uh, that would put the total upgrade at something like $5k.

My original 360mm rotors weighed exactly 30lbs. my 390mm 2 piece rotors weigh exactly 30lbs.
If your trying to lower unsprung weight, wheels are you best bet. My aftermarket wheels are 8-9lbs lighter EACH.

Even with $30 shipping it is still $100 cheaper to order from Rockauto, unless you really expect to use that lifetime warranty. I am not sure I have ever used the warranty on anything across three cars in 3 years.
