points i never thought of. I expected answers along the lines of stiffness of the caliper, etc. for what I'm doing, the factory calipers will be fine once I upgrade the rotors and pads.

That works for some people but I've never had any peace of mind so why should I start now.But if you're towing and want the added piece of mind that if your trailer brakes fail, your brakes won't be smoking and fading if you do need to stop at the bottom of an exit ramp. Then maybe better pads will do the trick. Getting bigger rotors to dissipate the heat of repeated hard stops is, IMHO, a bit of overkill. But they do look better behind 20 or 22" wheels.
Looking forward to this!I recently purchased a Wilwood TX6R Kit for the front of my 2018 platinum. I have not installed yet because of worries about rim clearance... but I am about to install over the holiday break and I will be making a post about my findings.
Then you when you get into really expensive upgrade kits you even replace the lines. The factory rubber lines allow a little bit of loss of pressure and clamping force.points i never thought of.

In your previous post you mentioned ‘solid rotors’... what did you mean by ‘solid’?points i never thought of. I expected answers along the lines of stiffness of the caliper, etc. for what I'm doing, the factory calipers will be fine once I upgrade the rotors and pads.
