Product Description

Looking to extend the range of your Tesla Model 3/Y by 20%, while increasing braking performance? The VTT lightweight front brake kit drops almost 32 lbs of unsprung weight, and 21.2 lbs of rotating mass from the front of your Tesla. Add our rear lightweight two-piece rear brake rotors for another 7 lbs of rotating mass reduction for almost 40 lbs of unsprung weight, and 30 lbs of rotating mass reduction. These are the same brake components we have tested at the highest level of motorsports with our BMW Drag racing program, and we also run them on all our street cars. This truly is the perfect match for the daily driver looking to increase range, or the EV racer looking to drop weight to increase performance.

Please see below for FULL weight information and FULL range testing data!

Please note: This is NOT a Big Brake kit. This kit is designed to increase braking performance WHILE increasing range by dropping weight.

The kit is a true plug-and-play kit using Genuine VTT parts, coupled with DOT-approved brake lines, CNC 7075 rotor hats/brackets

Range testing results are below. We drove more than 5300 miles and spent an ENTIRE year testing these brakes and recorded the milages from all the different testing cycles to come up with the data you see below. We recorded a 20% improvement in range by simply switching to the front, and rear lightweight VTT brakes. Please NOTE: Range is DIRECTLY correlated to your driving habits, and we drove the same routes as best as we could with the same style of driving. If you drive aggressively your range will decrease accordingly, but your range increase will stay the same as we are looking at the range delta from stock to the VTTEV brakes.
