Default Recommendation for New Rotors?

Hi Everyone -

I have a 2015 Lexus RC350 Fsport. I purchased a set of new Rotors last year from R1 Concepts. I got the Eline Drilled/Slotted rotors if i'm not mistaken. I have not been a fan of these. They are way to loud when braking. In addition, It's been a little more than a year since installing them and lately i have started to noticed that my steering wheel shakes insanely when slowing down. I believe it's that time again to have these replaced. I originally purchased these thinking they would be as good as stocks but would look better. So now, in the market for a new set and wanted to see what everyone else here is running?

Thanks in advance

Bought Powerstops for the rear (rockauto) and Brakenetics (ebay) for the front (both drilled and slotted). No issues so far. Be sure to get pads as well (if not obvious).

Nice. Is it pricey? Worth it?
