On my last replacement, I went with a brand called "Power Stop Extremes". They are ceramic and you do not need slotted rotors... Once installed, they have you go out and "seat" the pads to the rotors....it'll give you directions on how to do so.
So far after 1-1/2 years on my 2500 truck, they have been awesome. no pulling to one side, no squealing, and they are holding up extremely well....although I don't beat on the truck either and am not hauling huge loads very often either.
Brake dust has been a non-issue with them as well. Much much less than the OEM brake pads that were on it. I have close to 40,000 miles on them, and they don't look like they've worn down much at all.
