Question Rotars and pads, need advice

Hello everyone,

I am new to this forum and it is a pleasure to finally become a part of it. I recently just took out my 2012 Lexus isf from hibernation lol. The front brakes and rotars were something that I knew wS going to need replacing this summer. My question to all of you is ;

What do you guys suggest for front pads ?
What do you guys suggests for front rotars?

I don't do track, ( actually only one time this year I will be doing track in Toronto for the 2016 run 1000 rally). However I sometimes do drive street aggressively but nothing crazy. My mechanic spoke to me about textar front pads, he told me they are very good pads. There is also textar rotars.

My goal is to purchase something of quality with affordability. Can you guys help.

Get the rotors you have turned at the auto parts store for $10 each and re-use them. For the pads, you sound like you'd want a pad like a Hawk HPS or EBC Yellow stuff.

I used EBC Yellowstuff + Brembo slotted rotors in my previous car and they are great.
