You need the one with the correct part#. While the weights may be the same, that doesn't mean the center of gravity and polar moment is the same. While the S4/S5s take a 4.0, yet the s5 rotors are lighter. So should they take the same counter weight? Probably not. Mazdatrix should have a list on thier website.
