+1. 10lbs is a lot of rotating mass. There's some multiple, at least with wheels, that will tell you the effective difference in curb weight. I think it's 5-10lbs per pound, but someone should correct me.

Also the calipers are very light. I was shocked when I picked one up. No numbers, sorry. I haven't personally seen 335 M-sport brakes, but the M-performance calipers seem very rounded and hollow. As if they hold more fluid.
