im going to upgrade my rotors and pads.
my rear rotors are warped and driving me INSANE.
i upgraded the fronts to stock GT takeoffs..but since i need to replace the rears i might as well get 4 new ones from rotorpros. price is great
question is.. are the pads they offer for 80 bucks good? i HATE NOISE!

I heard the stock pads are Ceramic (Akebono). You might want to check into performance ceramic pads from some of the high end vendors. Slotted rotors with cooling ducts would also work.
How are you warping your rear rotors? Is your e-brake stuck?

Go with either Stock pads or one of the ceramic ones from EBC,Akebono, I would stay ways from HAWK pads. They have done nothing but produce tons of dust and noise for me in all the times I have tried them. I have tried a few of the various pads and they all have always made noise.
