That's a very good point. ANd the arguments are usually caused by people like ThisMaxIsTight. Coming into a thread to just ***** at you about searching more. Could have just as easily answered the damn question.

Brembo blanks and oem pads are my choice man.

Powerslot or Brembo slotted rotors if you're worried about dirt getting on them and scoring them (happened to me with blanks, but it's rare). If dirt gets on your rotors, it will get caught in the slots instead of being squeezed between the rotor and your pads and chewing up your rotors.

But those are a lot more expensive. If you're on a budget, or if you would be okay with possibly changing them more frequently if they get scored, just get Brembo blanks.

I have to agree with brembo blanks or powerslot rotors. For the pads, I would go with Hawk.
