Default Rotors and pads

Hey guys, my stock rotors warped now I'm looking to upgrade them because I need new ones anyway... What do you recommend as a new set of rotors and pads?

I put the OEM rotors on mine. As for pads, unless you track the car, CERAMIC pads will eliminate both brake squeal and brake dust. Akebono, Wearever gold, Stoptech and Duralast have been used by members.

I'm the opposite. Stock rotors overheated for me when driving through my favorite canyons so I went with stoptech rotors since they have better cooling, however I was unhappy with their ceramic pads not really biting well enough so I went back to stock pads.
