    After a couple of hours of web research... I am thinking of going with R1 Premium Rotors and Hawk HPS pads. I haven't decided between blanks and slotted.

    I went with DBA slotted rotors and EBC green pads.

    No real need for slotted. They are just a "look, I got slotted rotors bro!" conversation. No real payoff, Other unknowing people will just see them and think you have a mad fast car yo.

    R1 says that you get a wee bit more stopping power from slotted and chew up the pads a wee bit quicker.

    My intellect says go blank and my emotions are routing for slotted... Film at 11!
