quick product info sheet

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

Product Details

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.

      I really like this rear sway bar on my 2021 Model S Plaid. On the street it tightens up the car a lot. The car corners "flatter" and "feels" like the car has more grip and inspires confidence.
