Cheap Centric blank rotors, Castrol SRF fluid, and G-LOC track pads will change your mind on brake performance. For dailying, I run Stoptech Sport pads on Centric blank rotors, still with SRF.
Pros: changes brake performance

I had the same issue with my 2017 SEL-P - went with Centric high carbon rotors and akebono pads. No more issues. The factory pads and rotors are crap. Passengers think I can't modulate brakes in the parking lot as it stops abruptly.
Pros: no more issues
Cons: factory pads are crap
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Those should be a very good combo. I ran Centric rotors on my 2012 Gen2 with good results.
Pros: good results, good combo
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Old shop I worked at swore by centric posi quiets. They bedded in good even when the customer didn't want rotors
Pros: bedded in good
I did use a set of Centric rotors on one of the German cars, so far so good.
Pros: so far so good
If my customers choose aftermarket, I always get
380mm centric high carbon rotors
Centric posi-quiet ceramic brakes.
The centric rotors are the absolute best bang for your buck.
I find paid results in comebacks, and oddly enough I get a lot of comebacks when I use brembo brake pads and rotors (they are 100% a different formulation than the land rover brembo OEM spec)
Pros: best bang for buck
Cons: comebacks
Vehicle:
Land Rover Range Rover Sport
I'm not a track guy, but centric premium blanks are what I use based on s2ki recs, if your feeling fancy, I've heard good things of girodisk 2 piece rotors. Obviously, tracking you'll want to replace blanks more often, but centric blanks are cheap and plenty.
Pros: cheap, plenty
Cons: replace more often for track
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
Centric Premium is my preferred brand, I have used them for years and they don’t warp.
Pros: reliable, long lasting
Been running “Centric Posi Quiet Ceramic Brake Pads” since 2020 and nearly zero dust.
Pros: nearly zero dust
Non-PP, Centric coated rotors front and rear, Endless MX-72 front and EBC Yellowstuff rear, with ATE Type 200 fluid. They are fine for street and autocross but would probably not be good enough for the track.
Pros: good for street and autocross
Cons: not good for track
