best "affordable" Rotors/Pads combo?
I'm not looking for a bigger brake kit or anything by any means, something that will be better than the stock blanks that love to warp ...
need some hints...
saw some front/rear slotted/drilled and axxis pads or whatever for like 300 but know nothing about their products

i got the cheap rotoworks kit and hawks pad kit at ws6store i was hesitant about the rotors since they were so cheap but i like them they look good,brake smooth, and when you bush the brake hard they really stop good.. definatly a good deal.

probably same price either way, with a bit less towards the pads i guess... no experience with hawks pads though

IIRC the rotors are about $60 each on tirerack.com and the pads are about $80 on tirerack.com also. For $200 you can't get any better.
Listen to trackbird, he knows what he is talking about.
