I think you will be fine just upgrading the pads. Just the pads alone will give you much better braking feel.

Keep your stock rotors until they wear out =]

+ 1 ^^^.

HP+, Endless, Project Mu, Pagid, Mintex and the list of good brake pads go on. Just depends on the mix of stopping power, initial bite, dust and noise you are willing to accept.

stock pads are the best you can get for everyday driving/braking.

Stock rotors tho are quite sh!tty. So if upgrading, upgrade rotors but no need to upgrade on pads.

I put these on a month ago and they are terrible. WAY to much dust and noise. Going to take them off next month and throw this garbage away.

Have you heard of seido-ya? I'm not sure how popular they are but more-japan has them on their site.

Hawk HPS pads (on my Brembos)- last a long time, quiet, low amount of brake dust, would buy again without question!

I had hawk pads and the initial bite was weak. I had to get them warmed up before they bit down.
