    ^^^ This! ^^^

    It's why high end cars have pistons on both sides of rotor for each pad. Same with aftermarket brake upgrades like Wilwood, Brembo, etc.

    Tough to say. Define "better"......

    One has a better caliper, the other a larger rotor.

    One fits the wheel, the other requires a spacer.



    Ideally one that has all of that will trump them both.
