I THINK I have a NEW brake pad question

Your car can only stop as fast as your tires. You put these aggressive pads on, you will get better feel, but actual distance won't improve much

this is something I tell people as well.
Your braking is usually limited by your tires, because as soon as your brakes lock up, they aren't doing anything, and it's all dependent on your tires
