I am assuming this is for a street/mild track application ?

Pads:
I generally reccomend matching street compounds front and rear ... you can "get away" with mismatched sets but why bother when the rears are well under $50 a set for PBR/AXIS Ultimates ...

Rotors:
The OE rotors are fine, if they have enough meat then they can just be resurfaced, or if you wish you can replace them with a quality aftermarket rotor like Brembo.

Slotted:
Not nessesary, and expensive for no real perfomance gain


I just ordered my "winter" setup ... OE rotors, PBR Ultimates, Front and Rear, and Pentosin Race fluid.

My Summer Track setup will be Front Brembo OE blanks, Project Mu Titan Kai Fronts and B-Force rears
