I just can't see how you get 10 lb 9 oz rotor weight comparing these weights, even though the RX7 rotors are a tad heavier!
 
 
Hi George,
 
It was just an estimate of weight, and not meant for anything critical.  I got that number by weighing a rotor I had in the garage, along with a baggie of seals.  It was an older 10 lb rotor, complete with preserving oil, and plastic wrap.  Seals were dirty as well.  
 
Cheers,
Rusty
