Your comment agreed to our brake development experience on High Horsepower SUV among them the only model that's "close" to X Plaid is Jeep Trackhawk (see comparison below). Trakhawk has less HP and lighter than X, but conversely it has 6 pot calipers with larger & thicker rotor and pad...

Plaid's brake dust. RB XT910 low dust and no squeak street pad for X Plaid. https://racingbrake.com/pd-plaid-st/ The pad size difference you can see (RB vs. OE). Advantage of RB pads: Larger friction area than OE providing more torque with the same hydraulic pressure. Lining are made w/2...

Reference thread: Model X Plaid brakes question https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-x-plaid-brakes-question.261624/ We can confirm the front rotor is 15mm larger than S Plaid and ~2 lbs heavier, but the caliper and pad remain the same as Plaid S so is the rear brake. X Plaid Front...

What a larger pad means? OE / RB Stock Replacement / RB larger (65mm depth) pad+. Note the size difference among 3 of them. All RB pads are equipped with a "mechanical wear sensor*" (the metal clip in the middle or side) like OE unlike other aftermarket pad suppliers simply skip it. Pads are...

Illustration on why a larger rear pad is not possible w/ integrated rear parking brake like Tesla: Pads are confined within the caliper bracket (on right), and compressed by the piston (on left) which was also activated by the ePB for parking.

A larger swept area rotor can increase the thermal capacity but it does not improve the braking performance or lowing the braking temperature unless a comparable deeper pad (with larger lining area) is used together. However a larger diameter rotor (assume with the same size & compound on the...

Congratulations to Matt W. ordering this 420/410 complete CCB system kit last week just got shipped yesterday.

This is an affordable CCB brake kit for a 100% bolt-on installation.

Good to know and it makes good sense with larger wheels for X (vs. S) as X is not only heavier in vehicle weight but can seat 6 passengers (vs. 4) However the X brake has the same caliper & pad as S except larger in rotor (395 vs. 380mm) which makes less sense.

Yes. Fitment is guaranteed or exchanged is warranted. Since Plaid OE only comes with 19 & 21" and that's how we used as guideline per our selection chart. Generally aftermarket wheels are more forgiving than OE so we think 20" should fit 410mm kit.

With 21" the clearance is measured as 14.8mm With 20" wheel the clearance is expected to be 14.8-12.7 (1/2') or ~ 2.1mm. Above is based on extrapolation. Due to the variation of wheels contours (OE or aftermarket), the actual clearance may vary.
