It doesn't make sense that one would gain 14 lbs from a 1" gain in diameter. Based on volume of material, the increase in size has 18% more material so should be 18% heavier, which takes it from 22 to 26 lbs. I checked online and although the numbers above are listed correctly, my guess is there is a typo somewhere, probably the "26" became "36".
I took the weight Information form the BMW online part cataloge. I have no other source to verify. I agree that the listed weight of:
34 10 6 797 606 Standard rotor 370x30mm (S2NHA Standard rotor for 335i)
16.50 Kilogramm / 36.4 Pounds
seems quite high compared to the other 340 or 370 Rotors.
Maybe someone has another source to check.
