I work with Brembo techs and the misconception about big brakes is that they reduce stopping distances. Brembo does not even design their brakes to reduce stopping distances--they design them to disipate heat that prevents brake fade.

How? If the threshold of breaking (lockup)can be reached with stock brakes, how can bigger brakes shorten the stopping distance? The only way to shorten stopping distance is to either add contact patch, or remove weight.
