Default Recommend brake rotors

What brand of brake rotors would you recommend for my 2010 LS460? My front rotors are warped.

I used Stop Tech on mine about 5 years ago and they have been great. Low dust and great stopping. Also put them on my 2010 Tundra about 8 years ago and they have been great on the truck also.

From other applications, I know Centric/Stop Tech are quality components but for the LS460 are they $800-1200 good?
For 2 years now, I've been running Power Stop Z23 Evolutions with the carbon fiber/ceramic pads and have no complaints. There is a very small amount of noise and vibration at the very end of the stop (more due to being cross drilled & slotted), but more importantly to me is the stop at hard braking that matters most to me, and these are very good. Furthermore, the brake dust is minimal compared to other pads. Price has gone up since I bought mine ($440.82 on 24 AUG 2019).

For what it's worth, much of 'warped rotors' is due to over-tightening of lug nuts by lazz-azz mechanics. I've had this happen twice in the past ~ 10 years and this is one reason why I prefer to do my own work.

yep - I replaced my OEM's with stoptech when I purchased my 460 5 years ago @ 45K miles. Back then I paid $530 for the entire kit including sensor wires. Boy has pricing changed. Since then I now have 94K miles and they have lots of life and am totally happy with them. The kit includes slotted rotors, pads and sensors. For reference I put EBC Green pads on my Tundra before the stop tech and had squeeks with lots of brake dust. They have been on for about 70K miles with plenty of pad left and no issues. In fact I was so happy with them is the reason I put them on my Lexus.
