M-Performance Brakes Weight

Anybody have the weights on the M-Performance Brakes?

370MM/345MM Combo.

I've got a 335i, I'm assuming that these brakes will actually be heavier than my OEM Brakes?

Is the extra weight worth the trade-off in performance and what-not?

They should be lighter.

I've got the 340MM Rotors, so they weigh 22.2 Pounds, so the M-Performance Fronts, by themselves are 4Lbs Heavier.

I'd assume the rears would be somewhere like 2-3 pounds heavier too.

I do believe however, the Front Calipers of the M-Performance, and the 335i, are the same, no? Both are 4-Piston. It's truthfully confusing which calipers are on the 335i, It seems like the 335i, MSport, and MPerformance all share the same calipers, with different brackets, and different rotor configurations.

Rears however, I would expect to be slightly lighter, due to the fact that it's an Aluminum Caliper rather than the normal Steel? one.
