Best Brakes.?

Title should say it all, but what are the best brakes? Im talking complete package, rotors, pads, etc. Price is no object here, they just have to work on the 04+ f150's. Lets here what you think. Give the top 5 and reasons for picking them; no brake dust, stopping, etc.

Brakes are like many things, you get a lot of opinions. In my opinion, they are also like many things in that you can get carried away being "sexy" thinking it is needed or better. All I want to do is stop in a hurry, quietly, and have little to no brake dust. Just a set of Wagner Thermo Quiet pads has done that for me. I can stop my Screw very quickly at freeway speed, no noise, very little dust. I have about 47,000 miles on them and over half pad left. Lots of guys get similar results with CarQuest Blue pads.

That needs to be said then, you will need larger brakes.

Powerslots & Hawk Pads. I've heard this is a really good setup.
