I use the Power stop rotors on all four of my cars, I don't care about how much they cost, but they were all reasonably priced and they all look great and have very little wear after years of use.
Now for pads: Everybody has their own opinion on which ones are the best, and it all depends on the type of use, but generally these hold true:
Ceramic pads are clean but don't stop for schitt when cold, and can "warp" your rotors far too easily (the rotors don't really warp, it just feels like it: the ceramic pad can melt to the rotor building up high spots, which causes them to grab at those high spots when you apply the brakes, which then makes it feel like the rotors are warped). I hate plain ceramic pads.
Semi Metallic pads stop good cold or hot, but they make lots of dust that is hard to get off, many brands wear out quickly, and some can tear up the rotors in no time at all.- too much work for a daily driver !
Carbon Metallic pads make more dust than ceramics, but are far less messy than semi metallic pads. The dust they do make cleans up very easily (rinses mostly off with a hose, very little scrubbing needed). They stop good cold or hot, and grip like crazy when fully warmed up.
I use Raybestos Element Three EHT pads (these are a ceramic-metallic-carbon mixture) on my three other cars, but since they do not make them for the Police models, I use the Performance Friction Carbon Metallic pads.
