I remember reading in one of stoptech's white papers that the size of the pad doesn't matter...meaning putting a larger pad on a brake kit won't give you better braking.

Now, you seem to be suggesting that a larger pad will allow you to create more friction, which translates into better braking.

I'm trying to resolve these statements, and I'm confused. So where is the truth here? Is it that a larger pad WITH more pistons will allow you to generate more braking force?
