Brake discs DBA or Textar
I'm running DBA T3 Rotors with Powerstop Z26 Street Warrior Pads. I love the DBA rotors and had them on my previous Genesis Coupe. The Rotors aren't cheap with but worth it IMO.
Pros: worth it
Cons: rotors aren't cheap
Got DBA T3 4000 rotors on sale from tire rack a couple weeks ago for cheaper than the T2s. Hawk HP 5.0 pads and I'm very happy with the results.
Pros: very happy with results
I went with DBA street series with hawk pads. No complaints after 2 yrs of daily. Street Series feels more OEM+.
Pros: feels more OEM+, no complaints
At 180k I had a whole brake system overhaul, replaced all rotors and pads with new brake fluid. Textar parts all around.
Pros: brake system overhaul

Mileage: 180000 km
DBA has good gear, just put street series on my VF & are good.
Pros: good quality, good performance
you can get some solid 1 piece DBA rotors for less, and they'll be phenomenal.
Pros: phenomenal performance, solid quality

DBA rotors with hawk pads
Bisschen spät für den Post, aber für andere Suchende vielleicht interessant: habe für meinen Fiat Tipo auch hinten Bremsscheiben und Belag neu machen lassen. Materialkosten lagen bei mir bei 212€ (Textar-Bremsscheiben) und 85€ (Bremsbeläge). Flüssigkeit lag bei 11,40€. Arbeitsaufwand bei 150€.
Pros: Materialkosten Bremsscheiben bekannt
Vehicle:
Fiat Tipo
Hatte schon Brembo, Ate, Textar, Ferodo, TRW und Pagid verbaut. Vom reinen Bremswirkung fand ich Textar immer am Besten, da war aber auch nach spätestens 50.000 km Schluss mit den Scheiben. Ate war gefühlt ein My schlechter in der Bremswirkung, dafür aber sehr sehr haltbar - die goldene Mitte eben. Mit Brembo habe ich nur schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht, die Scheiben hatten nach 2.000 km Schlag, die Beläge wurden ziemlich schnell hart und quietschten wie Sau und besonders lang hielten sie auch nicht - dafür waren sie genau so teuer wie Ate. Habe aktuell Ferodo drauf, die waren günstig und bisher nach ca. 25.000 km absolut unauffällig.
Pros: gute Bremswirkung, haltbar
Cons: schnelle Abnutzung, quietschen

Oh when I got high carbon DBA rotors with PMU pads the screeching was unbearable for street driving, track was fine with all the hard braking, but light breaking around town…..screeeeeeech.
Pros: track was fine
Cons: unbearable screeching
