Do you have brake "FADING" problem? If so then consider upgrade else, it will be a mod for non-functional use.

The braking has to do a lot more with inertia, road/tire contact factors than the pad/rotor combination [with the base assumption that the pad/rotor/abs is capable of stopping the rotating wheel .. may be abs sould be thrown out of consideration as that is not going to be modded].

[ps: although this is an interesting topic but I have found myself and the people who disgree with me don't seem to be open minded on this issue. ]
