New Rotors! What would you do?

It's that time to replace rotors, pads, and a good ol brake fluid flush. I have searched...and searched and can't seem to find a consensus on top recommendations for rotor replacement. A bit about me and the car:
08x daily driver, no aggressive driving, maybe a small amount of "spirited" driving. I'm not hard on the brakes and don't track the car. Needless to say I don't need superior break performance for how much I drive and the way I drive. I have decided to go with the Centric Posi Quiet pads as everyone here seems to have great reviews of them and are a great value for the performance you get. Now, what about those damn rotors? Staying away from OEM for obvious reasons. What have you had good results with? DBA? Stoptech? Hawk? Centric? Feedback much appreciated!

^^Yep, can't go wrong w/ the Centrics^^ the Centric basic rotors are similar to OEM and the Centric premium has better venting. It sounds like you'd be OK w/ the basic Centrics.
Once you get the part # on rockauto try the part # on Amazon, might find it for the same price but w/ free shipping.

Awesome! Thanks guys. I'll check out pricing today. I'll go with the basic Centrics and the Posi Quiet pads, Should have installed by end of the week. I'll let ya know how things work after the break in period.
