Everyone loves the Carquest thermo quiets. I have NAPA ceramix and they are really good for quiet-ness and no brake dust, BUT I'll be replacing them at about 35K mi.

I'm running Carquest Blues on my Lariat and have no complaints. I've also heard Wagner Thermo-Quiets are good.

I myself have had extremely good luck with Carquest "blue" line of pads. I've had 2 sets of fronts/rears of semi-metallic (part number begins like BMD, B for blue, M for metallic) and am now on ceramic "blue" line of pads. Excellent pads either ones and not a hint of dust for weeks visually, a finger swipe does yield a small amount obviously. Wagner thermoquiets I also would recommend as many on here have testimonials. Proper installation is needed too again obviously. I think I actually have pics of the inside of the rim after months of driving and how much dust/dirt there wasn't. Checking on that in my gallery.





The second shows maybe a week or 2 without washing.
