Brake recommendations

What rotors and pads do people on this forum recommend for a 2006 LRS V8 SE?
I'm thinking of the PowerStop rotors (front and rear) with the Akebono pads.

Any other recommendations? I'm looking for stopping power and long life. Hoping those aren't mutually exclusive with this vehicle.

I used Raybestos Rotors
(F) 980351 Raybestos 980351 Disc Brake Rotor | eBay
(R) 980345 Raybestos 980345 Disc Brake Rotor | eBay
and Bosch Pads
(F) BP1098 Bosch BP1098 Brake Pad or Shoe Front | eBay
(R) BP1099. Bosch BP1099 Brake Pad or Shoe Rear | eBay

I purchased mine through Ebay and these exact sellers. Fast shipping and no problems.
I have had them on the vehicle for about a month now with no complaints.
