The rear rotors didn't go down in weight because of the size of the BBK rotor. The rear BBK rotor is thicker and has a larger diameter than the rear OEM SP rotor. Also the hat on the rear BBK rotor is bigger and thicker than the front BBK due to the parking brake. That's why the rear BBK rotor weighs more than the front BBK rotor.
