Not so far as I know.
The Formula 1 guys know a thing or two about tyres and brakes. They got to the point where the tyres started losing grip on the wheel rim, not the road. They had to go to toothed rims to stop this happening. Does a similar problem exists on aircraft?

Is it really this complicated ? Did the OP want to know about the benefits of reducing lift off the wing when braking ? The earlier math(s) neglected that R= mg-Lift, so dumping lift improves braking action.
F = mu x R is fine for this, surely ?
F = mu x R is fine for this, surely ?
