As long as the pads are wearing pretty evenly and have no grooves in them, then you can re-use them.

why not just get new pads? Fairly cheap anyways...that way you know you gotta complete new set of pads and rotors

don't get EBC pads and or rotors, got 'em and they chatter with ever bump and they suk,unless they are blistering hot!
They do sound cool due to the semi-drilled rotors, sounds like an airplane!
