I just ordered some from R1concepts.com, I know a couple people that recommended them as good quality and reasonable price.

Some are using the ones from Napa & have been reported that @ 20+K, still good smooth stopping as new.

Just another option:

That's what I put on mine, 8k later, still happy with them. But I didn't have any problems with the stock till I went past 40k.

I run the EBC Premiums (solid rotors!) with EBC Green pads , they have been excellent under lots of hard driving and towing. They run about 50 bux a rotor.

With the pads it was a huge upgrade. Steer clear of cheapo drilled / slotted rotors as they tend to crack over time.

Mine is still stopping just fine w/ plenty of friction material left on pads & back linings..

But in time if I need to, I will upgrade to Napa Ultra & safety Stops.

For pads - Ceramic or Metallic? Looking for quiet and dust free!

Personally I prefer ceramic for those reasons you listed.
