it must be me then. i do not see any FRONT pads (Axxis, Pagid, Mintex) listed for a 4.6is. i do see REAR pads, but no FRONT pads.

any 4.6is owners out there w/ Axxis pads?

Is the performance difference of the new rotors/pads paired with the OEM calipers worth the upgrade, or did you mainly do it for looks?

There are no Axxis pads made for the larger 4.6 and 4.8 brakes.

it performs better than the oem :thumbup:

i`ll try to do some test braking to a full stop from 60 mph to see how many feets it takes for the new brakes to get the X to a full stop, tha way we can have a better comparison, but this test is going to take some time since i`m a bit busy now days, but i can tell you that the peformance is better than OEM :thumbup:

If dust is that much of a concern, the brakes could be changed to another brand altogether, thereby jeopardizing the warranty, or just wash often.
