New Pads

After 45k the original pads are done and need to be replaced.

I have done a bunch of research on the forum and to me it seems like my best bet is to go ahead and replace the stock pads with new stock pads.

My ride is a DD and never has any track time. Over the last three years I have been more than happy with the OEM pads. I can deal with the occasional brake squeal at low speed. The dust from the OEM pads is ok for me.

Since I have to replace the rotors I am looking at either drilled or slotted.

Thoughts?

NM, I am going to stick with OEM pads and have the original rotors turned.

I recently changed my brakes and rotors at 65k miles with a set I bought from Brakeperformance.com. I bought the slotted/dimpled rotors on all 4 corners and upgraded pads.
