Who has experimented with aftermarket brakes on their Tribute? How did it turn out? Successes and failures, please! Thanks!

I put Raybestos QS pads and rotors on my 2002 4WD. Work well, less dust on the front wheels. I had to replace the stock rotors after 24,000 miles. The Raybestos are holding up very well after 36,000 miles.

I've heard about premature brake wear from many Tribute owners. However, with 35K miles, I am still on the original pads and rotors (knocking wood)...and at the last Full Circle Service, the report showed there was more than 50% remaining.
