The limitations on stopping power are based on your tires; I believe the "bite" of the pads are determined by the material used. Aftermarket pads usually perform better under extended load (no brake fade), but don't bite as well when cold compared to OEM. Of course it only takes 1-2 normal stops to warm up the pads, so this isn't really an issue.
