They do look great! And would like to hear how they perform, not just hard braking. As I am sure you will want take time to bead in the pads, But soft braking as well and with ABS engagement.

Ok here is a quick update...
The snow has limited any real testing...
But, I did get a chance to run the brakes thru a bedding process. So far they look great. And the truck is stopping...lol
Everything was finished up late last night and we already had 2 inches of snow on the ground. So we still need some fine tuning.. Right now, I have too much travel in my pedal... Which we think is still some stubborn air in the lines.. So once we bleed and test about two more times, we should have the rest of the air out the lines and the pedal should be back to a more stock travel feel..


Right now it looks amazing, but it's still hard to tell with the snow how much better the braking is...

More reports shortly...

Ok
I guess I also forgot to mention, the kit fit perfectly with Zero fitment issues....
Very very happy with the look and can't wait for the snow to be gone so we can rebleed and really put the brakes thru their paces....

Wheel/Tire/Brake combo is NICE!  If the pedal travel remains excessive, the ABS controller might need to be bled.  Don't know if a non-Ford shop would have the equipment for that.

That's is exactly one one of our potential concerns. Either the abs it some stubborn air in lines..
