I'd agree with advice about avoiding cheap rotors as they can warp, the pads I think it's a different story - as someone suggested ceramic is the way to go to avoid dust and rotor wear. I bought Morse ceramics from Auto Zone for my 2004 ARC and they have been excellent - I think I paid under $ 45 3 yrs ago. I didn't buy them "blind" - I found a brake pad test on the internet and they scored higher than greenstuff and some of those other fancy (overpriced IMO) pads
