1) there is NO WAY to overheat your stock late brakes without simply abusing them... Ive come down mountains with the car fully loaded and a boat on the back and not felt any fade 2) if you are unable to lock up the wheels (WITHOUT ANTILOCK BRAKES) your brakes are inadequate. If you want to decrease stopping distance you need to put more or stickier rubber on the road. Stock brakes will easily lock up stock radial or bias wheels.
