Brake discs STOPTECH or DBA
I went with DBA T3 4000 rotors and DFC5000 advanced pads.
It depends on the brand. I got some stop tech rotors from Amazon no issues
Pros: no issues
I got Stoptech slotted and drilled rotors for like $250, and their carbon ceramic middle pads for like $150 front and rear. They are awesome.
Pros: awesome performance
Just finished installing these. Added EBC blue stuff and APR lines. Motul 600 fluid. I should add I did the same in the back but just went with one-piece stoptechs. notes: they are awesome and to top it off they do look amazing.
Pros: awesome, look amazing
Cons: 19 inch wheels required
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf

Cons: need legit fluid

Running DBA 4000 SX rotors f/r on my '05. Stock calipers.
Pros: good rotors
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
I've had Stoptech slotted rotors and EBC Reds for three or four years now. They've been great!
Pros: great performance, long lifespan
StopTech Sport Slotted rotors have taken a ton of abuse for me and I can't recommend them highly enough
Pros: highly recommended, takes abuse
I've recently installed the DBA Street Series - T2 Slotted. Very happy with them so far, early days, but DBA does have a good rep. Priced well too.
Pros: happy with them
daily driving, you can get a full set of bosch pads from rock auto for ~60$. I like stoptech slotted rotors to help get debris off the pads. they also hold up a bit better than standard blanks. drilled rotors are mostly for looks and can crack much easier under heat unless you are spending big bucks on a high end rotor, which imo isn’t worth the cost.
Pros: hold up better
Cons: drilled rotors crack easily
