Technically rotors / wheels are the BEST type of weight to lose... unsprung, rotating mass. ...even on a RWD car. (front wheels always turning ya know)

However, you'd have to have quite the butt dyno to be able to tell the difference. I say the DBA rotors are just a good investment in longevity. My OEM rotors warped in 2 days. *sigh
