Default Brakes upgrade what would you do ?

Ok i wanted to get some Brembo Sloted sports rotors for the front and then some EBC Greenstuff brake pads for all 4 ... but then i heard getting rotors was pointless and even if i did slotted is a waste of money compared to blanks ..somone help me out i dont know what to do

IF you don't race your car. I mean on the track, not street race, Blanks are the best.

Lots of people hear have been doing brembo blanks with axxis ultimates or Hawk HPs.

Or if you got money get a wilwood kit.

I was happy w/ my Brembo blanks rotor discs and Hawk HP+s pads... it stopped well and I had enough braking power to avoid an accident ahead of me.. but the guy in back of me in his POS SUV didn't so he ended up rear ending me.. then took off (hit and run) ...

a lot of people also say the Autozone blank/solid rotors are good.. but I haven't personally tried them..

well my stock rotors were warped so I had to replace them anyway... as for better.. I didn't do any before (before they were warped) and after (after putting in Brembo and Hawk setup) stopping distance tests or anything..so no technical data or numbers....so I really can't say.. sorry...
