The difference will be less at low speeds and greater at higher speeds. Whether that difference is worth the cost to upgrade is entirely up to you. But there is a difference. Simple physics at work here. The tires and brakes work in tandem to stop the vehicle. Not one then the other as you have stated above. If the calipers stop the rotors before the vehicle stops, you're locking up the brakes which means they are not able to do their job as intended.
