need opinion on buying new brake pads and do i need to cut or replace rotors ?

I was just thinking which of the following i should get:
-new pads and rotors
-new pads, stock rotors
-new pads, and cut down the stock rotors
i think ur gunna say if they dont look smooth or right u should cut or replace them, but i just wanna make sure before i let loose any money...
When i do some hard street driving, and hard braking, my brakes smell like they are really really hot and they are burning . When my brakes are warm/hot, i am pressing down on the brake pedal all the way almost and the car is not stopping as it should, some crazy fade going on there... Im thinking of getting Porterfield R4-S or Hawk HP Plus or Hawk HPS, (which one would you recommend me) but i am looking for something preferably minimal or none brake dust( if thats even possible...hehe) But as long as there is no brake fade, when brakes are hot or warm, i can care less or noise/dusting issues.
Thanks(work with me here)
