which rotors/pads

Hi,

My brake light is coming on and then going off daily and I know it is time to do the front brakes.

My question is which kits are you all buying off of ebay? I see a number of them listed. I only do street driving and even that is rather tame. My biggest concern would be brake noise, then brake dust. I am sure any quality pad/rotor will have plenty of stopping power for my driving style,

Thanks

Mike

If your rotors are still good (not scored/grooved) and level, could just go with new pads (and sensors). I'd suggest Textar pads, they're the OE supplier. They are a bit dusty (as are the OE pads), but they work very well.
