Get some Brembo blanks from like Tirerack. You don't need slotted/cross-drilled rotors. Slotted rotors will kill your pads. And cross-drilled rotors take away need surface area from the rotor.

Get some good pads like Porterfield R4S and you are set!

Brembo blanks + Porterfield R4S <= best combo short of a BBK
