    meh, larger rotors and pads mean higher thermal capacity.

    The ratio between your master cylinder and your caliper pistons determine brake force.

    Caliper rigidity also effects how efficiently the force is transferred.

    But pad composition plays a large part as well.

    Before ALL of that is what you have for traction.

    namely your tires.
