Carbon ceramic brakes

Here's a great article on the tradeoffs and issues with CCBs:

Are carbon ceramic brake discs better than iron? | Essex Parts Services, Inc.

That depends on how you plan to use them!

Waste of money imo.

I have heard (haven't confirmed yet) that the Model S uses the same brake rotors that are on the Camaro SS. The studs and lug nut spacing is the same. You can get front and rear Carbon Ceramic rotors for the Camaro. I have seen fronts for the Tesla. The Camaro rotors are cheaper

Only the Z/28 has CCBS. No other Camari did.

Just my experience on a regular BMW M5 car, difference between Ceramic and Steel brakes is more than significant.
Only rotors are brake pads were changed, rest is the same.
But here with EV do you press brakes pedal so often?

Yes. When slowing down from 140 mph. Which is super easy.
