I bought stock front rotors from a local dealer. Shopped around to find a dealer with the lowest price (low $90/ea range as I recall). I purchased Akebono Performance ceramic pads on Amazon: They are showing as “currently unavailable.” Maybe you can find them somewhere else. Brake pulsing is now gone, car stops very well, and I have less brake dust than with stock pads.
I have some lighter rear rotors that are OEM sized saved 5lbs along with stainless brake lines and the brake master cylinder brace that keeps it from flexing on firewall...all from ECS to be paired with EBC reds up front and blues in the rear. IMO it was the quickest way to liven up braking capability without getting into big brake kits.

Right now I’m looking at getting the Akebono Proact pads. Fairly confident the pads are good cuz that’s the OEM brand to my understanding
Listen, try to change your brake pads and just to be sure, fill a new brake fluid and the problem likely will go away. But try pads first. I recommend using EBC DOUBLE H sintered pads
I did several track days last year in my 2016 GTI with EBC blue stuff pads front and back. Really liked them. Stayed good for 20 and 30min sessions. Used fresh motul rbf600 fluid.
So, I run EBC yellow stuff, and they're honestly pretty fantastic street pads that will tolerate the use of light duty track days and autocross. I've ran them on multiple vehicles because they have a nice cold bite while still being able to cope with higher temps and having a good feel in modulation. Though, I've decided to for this season move to the blue stuff pads for one of the toys seeing track time this year. Do be warned, the Yellowstuff pads can be rather dusty.
I’ve been a big fan of every EBC pad I’ve used. I liked yellowstuff but not when it’s winter. When they are hot they are incomparable to anything else I’ve used (I have used very few different pads so this isn’t a real data point). I like greenstuff for anything but driving at 9/10ths or above. They tend to fade quickly. I’m running Redstuff pads now and they seem good but I haven’t pushed them. They have a little more overhead than greenstuff apparently. They work well at low temperatures.
These brand new EBC front pads got a bit cooked on my GR Corolla after a 2-day event at Watkins Glen. She still stopped without any drama at the bus stop, but it's concerning I ran through them this quickly.
I have personally ran these rotors with EBC HH pads. I blued them on my first track day and swapped to used OEMs before the next. They felt fine as far as bite but the immediate bluing shows they’re not up to any amount of real heat. If I ran them for a track day or two more they surely would’ve faded badly and warped. I don’t recommend them.
