PM 88Rotors for Brembo blanks and PBR semi-metallic pads. Pretty good price for the package.

It is recommended to resurface rotors everytime you change rotors. Depending on how old your old rotors are, I would change them accordingly.

I'd take it to a trusted local brake shop. One in my town resurfaces rotors for $10 a piece, and only charges $40/hr for labor, which most places around here do $50-60+/hr.

depending on how long and how bad that tab has been eating away at your rotor... you shave have a good ideal on if you should replace it or not just buy looking at it. there shouldn't be anything deep.
