Default Brake Pad/Rotor Recommendation?

Well, I really need to replace me pads and rotors on the car. I have maybe 5,000 miles tops left on my brakes. Apparently they have never been changed, so I just thought I'd see what the best brake pads and rotors were. I heard that the Green Stuff is a pretty good pad, but no one I know seems to have them. Any help would be great, I tried looking, but I didnt get alot of experienced pad/rotor wear and performance. Thanks in advance guys!

i wouldnt hit the green stuff since its an organic compound pad.

the red stuff is more appropriate since the OEM pads are ceramic and so are the red stuff

personally im going with the ATE pads/rotors front and rear along with (hopefully) SS lines.
