Better heat dissipation which assists in minimizing brake fade. It’s only half the equation though. I’m not saying it won’t help some, but upgrading calipers as well is the right way to do it. It’s just much more expensive.

It’s not always about speed. I installed a Vanco Big Brake Kit from Black Magic Brakes on my 05 LJ. The stock brakes were ok when the Jeep was stock, but you add 35-37” tires, heavy bumpers, a lift, winch, tube fenders, etc., etc., then the Jeep gets heavy. The stock brakes were struggling to...

PowerStop - $685 for all four (rotors and pads). Baer - $1642 for all four (rotors and pads). That’s a pretty big price difference.

Probably an HOA (i.e. neighborhood anti-christ) says he can’t have one. Or, just doesn’t have a use for one.
