Lightness. Stopping Power. Lifetime warranty. The carbon ceramic (carbon-silicon carbide) rotors developed for this new kit dramatically lighten the rotating mass to the tune of 16lbs of weight savings, while providing improved stopping power and endless brake life.  The Tesla Model S Plaid is one of the fastest street cars on earth and decelerating 5000 lbs quickly, repeatedly and with consistent driver confidence is a big challenge. Pushing your Plaid anywhere near its limits requires a braking system that can take a beating from high-weight-high-g-force stops exerting incredible forces again and again and again.  These brakes are designed to take constant abuse and keep on providing consistent stops when paired with appropriate high-temp racing brake fluids.

  • 365 x 28mm rotor (same as factory)
  • Lifetime warranty against rotor wear (for original purchaser, non-transferable), including unlimited track use!
  • Nearly 20% increase pad contact patch (56mm sweep annulus vs. 47mm)
  • UP x PFC brake pads are designed and extensively brake dyno’d amd field tested for use with carbon-ceramic rotors
  • Fits factory 20″ Cyberstream and 22″ Turbine wheels
  • 16lbs (38%) weight savings vs stock (25lbs for pair vs. 41lbs for factory)
  • We strongly recommend pairing your rear kit with our Super Light Carbon Ceramic Front Big Brake Kit (BBK) which includes our brake lines

2021+ Model X Plaid / Model X – Superlight Rear Large-Sweep Carbon Ceramic Rotor + Pad Kit

Fit your Tesla Model X Plaid or Long Range with this high-performance and high-efficiency rear brake upgrade. Compatible with 19″ and above wheels, these brakes drop a massive 16lbs of rotational weight, provide a 19% increase pad/rotor surface area, and provide performance improvements no matter your tire preference or type of driving.  Whether your aim is maximum attack on the track, posting the fastest drag strip times at your local drag night, or maximizing efficiency and acceleration on the street, these are all upside.  Rear carbon ceramics without compromise.

Carbon ceramic braking technology is leveraged by modern hypercars and supercars to provide the ultimate in stopping power, combined with the unique characteristics of carbon which include lightweight, light-wearing, and long component life.  Early-generation carbon-ceramic rotors from manufacturers such as Ferrari and Porsche earned a reputation for being squeaky and cranky in cold weather, these problems have been overcome with the latest generation carbon-ceramic technology. We are proud to say that our carbon-ceramic brake systems are quieter than any iron system we have tried with performance pads and perform well in all conditions from boiling hot track days to frozen mountain roads.

Specifications:

  • Lifetime warranty against rotor wear (for original purchaser, non-transferable).  We guarantee these rotors will last as long as you own your vehicle and we will replace them for free if they need replacement.  This INCLUDES unlimited track use!  Pad replacement is both affordable and infrequent compared to iron rotors.
  • Large 56mm sweep annulus carbon-ceramic (carbon-silicon carbide) rotor paired with oversized Large Sweep brake pads allows for more pad-to-rotor surface contact in the same physical dimensions to easily fit 19″ wheels. The 56mm sweep is 19% more than the factory rear rotor’s 47mm annulus.
  • Newest rotor technology with the highest friction available
  • The rotor utilizes no separate friction layer with maximum durability for a lifetime warranty of use. This ensures no future need for downtime to send in friction layer for servicing/re-infusion.
  • UP x PFC brake pads are designed and extensively brake dyno as well as field tested specifically for use with carbon-ceramic rotors, and are compatible with daily street use and hardcore track driving.
  • Fits all Tesla Model X Plaid and Model X Long Range 2021+ vehicles in any factory wheel configuration including 19″ inch wheels
  • Long-lasting brakes can stand up to consistent performance driving and track use. Clients have raced multiple full seasons on a single set of pads and no rotor changes.
  • 16lbs reduction (38% less) of rotational unsprung weight for better feel and improved efficiency. Factory rear rotors are 41lbs combined, these are 25lbs
  • Kit includes all components necessary for installation (high-performance brake fluid will need to be supplied by the buyer, and can be purchased at any automotive parts retailer). We strongly recommend pairing your rear kit with our Super Light Carbon Ceramic Front Big Brake Kit (BBK) which includes our brake lines)
  • Designed to fit Tesla 19″ Tempest and 21″ Arachnid wheels as well as all Unplugged Performance wheels and every aftermarket 19″ or larger wheel that we have seen.

      50mm spacers are exactly what you need to give your CyberTruck the stance it was created for! By a skilled installer all 4 spacers installed under 45 minutes. 2000 miles on them and no wobble!
      brian c. February 09, 2025
      I upgraded to these from my stock rotors and pads primarily for the lighter unsprung weight as I take my car to the drag strip on occasion. There was a noticeable difference in how early I was to stop in the slow-down zone after the 1/4 mile. I also bought their Stainless Steel Brake lines and...

      Dominic Marcu - Racing Driver Just perfect for my car
      Dominic M. April 12, 2023
      I really like the new moderate lowering spring for my Model Y performance. The set lowered the car by roughly 1 inch (2.5cm) I have the feeling that the car provides a smoother ride than stock. You feel it when driving over small bumps. The car is still stiff but I like it better that stock and...

      This is a necessary product if you want to properly raise or lower your vehicle. Part is super high quality.
      josephschneider77 November 04, 2022
      I love the front ascension fascia! Really changes the whole look of the Model 3. My least favorite part of the car was the front bumper and this changed it all for me. Noticeable improvement in downforce as well which is a nice touch. Totally transformed the car and I couldn’t be happier. Also...
      zackfeldstein9 September 24, 2022
      What a difference this sway bar made to my Model S Plaid. This helps correct the body roll the car has from the factory. I have much more confidence taking turns at a higher speed, and freeway on-ramps have become extremely fun. I would highly recommend upgrading your sway bar in the Model S!
      D. H. September 08, 2022
      Had the bars installed with the end links on my M3P, at the same time lowered with performance springs and got new tires. No regrets. The car rides flat af. I look forward to round-abouts now. Big ups to UP.
      Edmundo R. January 10, 2023
      After using the fascia for over two years, this feels like a must-have Tesla upgrade. The stock Model 3 just doesn’t look the same anymore. I would recommend epoxy over double-sided tape to secure the ultrasonic sensors for a longer-lasting, flush fitment.
      David S. November 06, 2022
      Best bang for your buck upgrade for your Tesla. Unplugged Performance installed these a few months after I got my Model 3 and was an immediate and significant difference. Eliminated body roll and sway in corners and car stays so much flatter. The difference is significant and very noticeable. Such...
      zackfeldstein9 September 23, 2022
      The stock brakes are dangerous. A silly underpowered part. Immediately shift to these track tested brakes. Safety is all that matters! The bonus is the gorgeous disk!
      raviprabhakar October 03, 2022
      I recently purchased the UP-03 Race Spec Wheels for my Tesla Model 3 from Unplugged Performance. Although the wheels look great and undoubtedly enhance the driving experience, I encountered a few issues during the process. Firstly, I was not informed that I would need spacers for the UP validated...
      David S. April 19, 2023
      Been waiting for this part from UP since purchasing my coilovers almost 2 years ago and just perfect timing that old links are completely shot and this totally changed the overall feel of the car and reduced tension. Customer service is excellent and will be doing next upgrades with UP
      jdl21292 April 10, 2023
      Great add on for your Tesla to really dial in the alignment! Great time to do it is when you’re lowering your car already or getting an alignment anyways. Improving tire wear is very important for me as I drive a lot and been getting more miles/set than ever before. Highly recommend!
      zackfeldstein9 September 24, 2022
      This spoiler has a perfect balance. It isn't as subtle as the OEM performance Teslas, yet not comically large. A fitting addition to the Plaid! Great design as is to be expected from Koenigsegg. Slight efficiency gains at high speeds as well.
      Ravi October 03, 2022
      The pictures on the website does not do justice. the wheels look extremely beautiful. Kirk was extremely helpful, and coordination was amazing. My wheels are gloss black, not able to add a picture to the review if not would do it. I went with slightly bigger wheels 20x10.5 front and 20X11 back. ...
      hari_kb March 31, 2024
      Such an underrated improvement to my car, reducing unsprung weight of each wheel rotating at speed, improves steering, cornering performance and very aesthetically pleasing! It's incredible how much lighter they are from the stock lug nuts, which feel like heavy weights after handling these titanium...
      Sof October 19, 2022
      You can see my photos on the site under Steve Guevara to see the detailed work that went into the front fascia unit. I said before that my skeptical wife told me to pick out the car that I wanted, so I liked the TM3 the best as my kids are away at college and now it is my turn to be spoiled. I also...
      smgdcw November 16, 2022
      I installed this sway bar today. I was shocked by the outcome in terms of handling. It feels almost playful in the corners now, where as before it felt like it was exclusively about straight lines and that corners were sort of something to get through. It's on a medium setting, and I think if I had...
