Personally I use ATE Power Disc vented rotors on the front, and regular ATE rotors on the rear. Brake pads I use Mintex all around. Good stopping power, and doesn't make noise...much. It's VERY rare, and the squeak is very low in volume.

The Power Discs wear through pads a little quicker due to the slotting if I'm not mistaken but it helps with outgassing of the pads when you're hard on the brakes. If you're just an average driver, just get regular discs.

A lot of people here will recommend PBR Deluxe pads too. Never tried em personally.
