Rears are tough to drop weight because of parking brake. A few rotor options that lose a little weight in rear but sacrifice parking brake.

For a more hard core track setup then a real front and rear BBK like WW or AP is great.

For a more casual setup the LW WW 4R + some slotted DBA rear rotors and pads is a solid cheaper setup.
I don't think Wilwood and AP kits are comparable, I once fitted Wilwood 6 pots in my Impreza GT MY00 an were very flexible, calipers and brackets, I replaced them with Prodrive Alcons and the difference was huge in feeling and stopping distance.
The same when I went from Wilwoods to AP5000 kit in my STI MY04, Wilwoods are a big NO for me...
