Shopping for Brake Pads + Rotors

Hi,
I've asked this before but finally narrowed it down to 3 choices for my brake pads + rotors.
Can you please tell me which option you recommened?
Or, if you know another place I can buy them, please let me know.
Thanks!

1) R1Concepts (I like it because its cheap but is it worth it?) (http://www.r1concepts.com/)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/FRONT-REAR-4...item5ae46e888c
- Price including shipping to Canada = $327.07

2) R1Concepts (http://www.r1concepts.com/)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/PREMIUM-SERI...item519cad06a5
- Price including shipping to Canada = $574.33

3. Autopartsway (Benefit is that everything ships from Canada)
EBC Brakes Front Disc Brake Rotor (Ultimax USR Sport)
EBC Brakes Rear Disc Brake Rotor (Ultimax USR Sport)
EBC Brakes Front Disc Brake Pad (EBC Ultimax Premium OE)
EBC Brakes Rear Disc Brake Pad (EBC Ultimax Premium OE)
- Price including shipping to Canada = $591.96

I was thinking about buying those R1's too. Anyone know if they have the rust issue that a lot of other rotors have i.e. advanced auto, pep boys etc

What I recommend and use: Quality cost a little more but worth it!
DBA rotors & HAWK HPS pads
And you can buy them here on our MARKETPLACE under verdor brakes.
