Lightness. Stopping Power. 2-Year 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)
- 2-Year 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 19″ Cardenio and 21″ Arachnid 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 S Plaid / Model S Rear – Superlight Large-Sweep Carbon Ceramic Rotor + Pad Kit
Fit your Tesla Model S 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:
- 2-Year 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 2-Year 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 S Plaid and Model S 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.

Will upgrading my brakes void the Tesla warranty?
Tesla’s warranty covers factory-installed parts, but it does not automatically void your warranty if you install aftermarket components like Unplugged Performance brake kits. Under U.S. law (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), Tesla must prove that an aftermarket part caused a failure in order to deny warranty coverage. Our parts are engineered to work harmoniously with Tesla OEM Brake systems and can be professionally installed by Unplugged Performance in Hawthorne, CA or by an authorized installer to minimize risk. That said, any damage directly caused by misuse or improper installation may not be covered. We recommend retaining all factory parts so you can revert to stock if needed. Many Tesla owners enjoy peace of mind by using Unplugged Performance products, which are extensively tested and installed by certified professionals. If warranty concerns are top-of-mind, our team can help clarify compatibility and installation best practices to ensure a worry-free experience.
What does the Unplugged Performance product warranty cover?
Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.
This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.
To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.
Will Tesla void my warranty if I install aftermarket parts?
A vehicle’s comprehensive warranty as a whole may not be voided due to use of aftermarket parts per the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts). However, a manufacturer may require a customer to pay for parts and labor for a repair if there is direct causation between a customer’s alteration and the product or service repair being requested. It is in both manufacturer and customer’s interest to follow logic and reason so that the system of good faith is not abused. If this topic interests you please read the law as well as your warranty documentation. Ultimately we are Tesla owners and enthusiasts, we are not lawyers and cannot provide legal advice.
