Brake discs STOPTECH or Duralast
I have applied Dynamic friction rotors and no OEM pads on my giulia at 29K miles, I am closing on 33 K and no issue what so ever (except for the ceramic pad dusts in the wheels). I would recommend not wasting your money on Alfa oem rotors or pads. They are ridiculously overpriced and if they were so good, you won’t be replacing them at 30 K. Rotos usually lasts well above 50K miles.
Pros: no issues, long lifespan
Cons: ceramic dust
Mileage: 33000 km
I've been running posi-quiet pads and duralast gold rotors and it's been excellent great stopping power similar to stock and and minimal break dust!
Pros: excellent stopping power, minimal dust
replaced rotors and pads on my 11' 460. The price difference between grinding and getting new rotors was pretty small so i just bought new gear. Ended up going with the duralast gold rotors which are nice because they have a coating so they don't rust. After about a year and a half, i'm still happy with everything.
Pros: don't rust, good quality
I use stoptech cryo slotted rotors front and rear, stoptech stainless lines front and rear, and stoptech sport pads and I have been very happy. No squeaks, squeals, and very little dust. After my last track day they did go a little wonky on me but I took an afternoon to go get them a little hot again on a fun drive and they straightened out for me. No vibration/wonky wheel ever since. They have worn nicely and I had it all installed back on Aug 3, 2017.
Pros: no squeaks, little dust, good wear
Cons: warped after track use
Just put the same exact rotors on. With Hawk pads and SS brake lines too. Love it so far.
Pros: love it
I threw that same combination on my genesis coupe to replace the brembos. This is probably a better brake set up and much cheaper, I beat the crap out of it on multiple track days with next to no fade.
Pros: better setup, cheaper, no fade
Vehicle:
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
Pagid is one of the industry leaders in brakes. They have other single piece cast rotors in the $100/ea range, just make sure you stick with something that uses a high carbon alloy. There's nothing wrong with going single piece, Stoptech's performance rotors are just drilled and slotted Centric high carbon single piece rotors. If you're going to keep the car long enough to realistically think you'll change the rotors again, then FCP Euro for the lifetime warranty. I've run Stoptech Sports and they're fantastic but make a fair amount of noise at the end of their life and expensive now.
Pros: fantastic performance, good value
Cons: noisy at end of life, expensive

I use stop tech on all my cars, kind of spongy at the very top but other than that they bite hard.
Pros: bite hard
Cons: spongy at top
Awesome! I used StopTech. Wanted slotted only, but they shipped me drilled and slotted. Oh and I went on doing the braided steel brake lines too for fun. So far so good ????
Pros: so far so good
Brakes: (front) StopTech 13.5” slotted Frodo, 944 Porsche pads, (rear) VR6 disc from 1996 Golf
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
