Zimmerman rotors are pretty much the item of choice as far as I know, and I’ve always sworn by Hawk HPS pads if you’re street driving.

Pros: item of choice

Zimmerman makes solid rotors and Akebono pads are awesome, plus they last forever. I think the only thing you could improve on is a bit of extra stopping power if you went back to the oem pad material, which is likely not ceramic like the Akebonos. However, you'll lose those clean wheels and the pads will likely wear out much faster. I never felt that they lacked adequate stopping power anyway. Brake feel is much more linear compared to the super grabby stock pads, and I actually prefer it now that I'm used to it.

Pros: solid rotors

Galfer Wave Rotors and MTX Braking Red Pads. Upgraded my Switchblade to 203mm front and rear and added in a set of Red Pads and my SRAM Code R now stop like XTR but have great modulation.

Pros: great modulation

I just bought zimmerman cross-drilled rotors for the fronts. Cross-drilled rotors are lighter but do not dissipate heat better (less material to soak up heat). Stock or slotted rotors are best for soaking up heat.

Pros: rotors are lighter
Cons: do not dissipate heat better
