Unless you are making 400+ to the rear wheels normal brakes from Autozone/Kragen/Pepboys/Dealer will be just fine.

We usually wont use anything except raybestos QS ceramic Pads and Raybestos PG+ rotors. The pads are pricey but leave virtually no brake dust on the rims and make little to no noise at all. Cheap rotors are good for nothing more than headaches. I cant remember the last problem we had relating to these pads and rotors, they are excellent!
