Default Brake package for 2007

Need recommendations for pads and rotors and possibly calipers. I don't race, and they are only for street/highway. I would like drilled rotors and ceramic pads to eliminate dust. I've heard Hawk makes a good pad but I don't care for the look of the rotors I've seen on the internet.

Pricing - In the moderate range. Don't want low end but don't need high perfromace either. Look is more important but reliabilty is certainly important as well.

Pictures would be helpful.

Thanks

Shawn in Dallas

Sir,

I like and use these rotors, they are lite and last a long time.

Also there are a lot of members that like these rotors as well.

Those AFX rotors are nice, and supposedly much lighter than stock? But is that the price per rotor?!

Yes Sir,

They are a bit pricey, but do last a long time. I have over 46,000 miles on mine and they still look good. I run the stock Z51 pads with them.
