HGW is off the scale

Para--you are technically correct but the lighter tire may cancel that out?----it is so small of a diff, that I called it even.

Once you get to 37's and bigger wheels the math is not necessary--you will increase your stopping distance. Even though I sell Brembos and AP Racing and Precison Brake, etc., I question the need for bigger brakes with 37s and 20-22 inch wheels.

Beyond that, with 40s and up, I am a big advocate of bigger/better brakes.

Also, the bigger brakes are designed for repeated braking as in heavy traffic, etc. The reduce heat and really make a diff--from personal experience. The big brake kits design from the brake fade/haet redux perspective, not for decrease stopping distance.

If I lived in the mountains and had to brake down hills everyday, I would definately upgrade the H2 brakes--they are the mininmum set of stock brakes at best.
