LOl what are you trying to do circuit race in them?
Street use.
Or are the Aerospace Components only designed for drag racing or track racing? Looks at a number of suppliers and they don't list anything for the 'street.'

Based on Tirerack.com stating tires weigh 29 lbs, the wheels would be 28.6 lbs. I'd say +/- 0.5 lbs.

Part: 20x9 Foundry Wheels = 35.7 lbs.


Read through this post a while back and didn't see any weight posted for the factory 20" foundry wheels. I just got new wheels installed today, and I weighed the stock wheels. My wheels weighed 35.7 lbs.
when you say wheels, you mean just the rims?
do you (or anyone) happen to know the weight with tires?
Thanks

My contribution to this thread, keep it going:
1. Brembo GT kit 15 inch disc 25.5 lbs
2. Brembo GT kit caliper 12 lbs
3. Cortex offset strut 16.5 lbs
4. All the carpet under lining 5.5 lbs (yes I pulled all mine off and weighted it)
5. Brembo GT kit caliper again 12 lbs
6. Stock base GT struts 19.5 lbs
7. Carpet without the lining 11 lbs, so whole carpet is 16.5 lbs
8. Cortex / JRi rear shock and spring 6.5 lbs
"Stock GT Base Struts" - can you clarify?

Is this complete with spring and upper strut mounts, per side? Or is it just the strut alone?

I would like to list each part separately when/if possible.

Thanks!

How warp resistance are the Aerospace Lightweight Street rotors?
I have stopped the car over 50 times from speeds in excess of 150+mph.

Mileage wise, I have put 3000 miles on them.

No warpage.

They are great pieces. I actually just got some new style rotors and some newer less aggressive Hawk Pads to keep the dust down. :thumbsup:

I have the aerospace drag brakes on my 92Lx. You don't want to drive them on the street. They are cross drilled single disc. Very light but only good for drag racing.

That is not what is listed in this thread.

The Aerospace brakes that I have are much more unique, and simply better than the kit you mention.

I am using the Pro-Street Kit, with a 13" Vented Rotor. This is not a single disk drag design.

Their Pro Street Kit is recommend for street/strip, and overall performance.

Their Drag Kits are recommend for, Drag Racing only.
