While I agree that the tires are an important factor in this, what happens if you put on a tire that has more adhesion properties than the stock one? Perhaps a bit wider foot print and a softer compound.
One would think that if this level of grip was increased then the amount of torque generated could also be exploited to gain the benefit of this grip.
Since most folks who are serious enthusiasts here, I submit that 'better' brakes can indeed enhance the stopping power of the car relative to the tire of choice.
Yes, I've read the articles over the years and for the most part they are correct, however simply adding a stickier tire will not in itself shorten up the stopping distances as much as matching this to a brake mod as well. And of course the comments of repeatability is a valid one.
