Without knowing what engine is in yours, and your driving style, Cool Carbon is the way to go. If you are a 4.6 or 4.8is this is no part number for your application except for the rears. IMHO you should match front and rear pads to provide consistencies under hard/panic braking.

From the Rockauto.com website

Rotors (assuming 4.4)
CENTRIC 12534050 High Carbon Alloy $63.79 FRONT
CENTRIC 12534051 High Carbon Alloy $46.89 REAR

Pads
POWER STOP 16681 Z16 Evolution; Ceramic FRONT $24.79
POWER STOP 16683 Z16 Evolution; Ceramic REAR $26.79

OR Cool Carbon

Stay away from the slotted and drilled rotors as they are "Eye Candy" unless you are tracking your X5 on the weekends, then plan on upgrading everything to BREMBO BIG BRAKES. $2,700 +++++ They look GREAT and perform as engineered. Not for only street use......
