Message	(Big Rotor Kit) The brake pad size does not change, nor does the caliper. That being said, I'm sure it goes a long way. SS lines, BMC brace, better fluid are things that all lend to better braking. Adding extra rotor surface to allow them to operate more cool than stock and slotting/drilling them helps with brake fade and allows them to survive hard braking longer. You would definitely "feel" the difference, especially depending on current vs upgraded pad types.
