I finally got my rotors and pads installed after they had been sitting in my house for 2 months. I got them from buybrakes.com where you can use the coupon code 08010 to get $10 off and they have free shipping on orders over $100.
I got the Powerstop drilled rotors and the Hawk ceramic pads for all 4 wheels.
The ceramic pads help reduce brake dust, but I had ceramics on before so that wasn't really a change for me. Also, my old ceramics that I had on for about 80,000 miles still looked good when I had them replaced. I only replaced them because you're suppose to put on new pads with new rotors.
There was only a very small improvement when making a stop at low speeds, but where they really show an improvement is going from 70mph to a stop. I tested them when I was comming off the freeway and I was pretty impressed. They provide a solid and quick stop with no negative effects.
