Default need new rotors

I"m in need of rotors as well as brake pads. My car is a 2000 gs 300 that has warped aftermarket rotors and worn pads. I do plan to lower the car and eventually upgrade the suspension. What options do I have for a nice rotor and pad combination?

I put on Rotora slotted rotors with Akebono ceramic pads last spring. The combination is quiet and has almost no brake dust.

I have Rotora Slotted rotors with Axxis Deluxe pad.
There is slightly higher amount of brake dust, compared to OEM rotors with OEM pads.
I do recommend this combo if you dont mind brake dust.

I would go for OE rotors as well as Axxis Ultimate pads. But I would go to bimmerforums.com, PM a guy there in the Group buy forums, and get him to get you Brembo Blanks (4) $230 shipped, and all 4 pads for $90 shipped. Mention my username. I buy stuff from him all the time. He accepts paypal, credit cards, and maybe some other forms of payment. Cool dude to deal with.
