I would go with OEM brake pads and rotors. Just seems that a lot of people have problems with aftermarket brake equipment.

OEM rotors and sensors, from the dealer.

If the dust doesn't particularly bother you, then OEM pads are the best bet, again from the dealer. I have had good luck with Axxis Deluxe pads (from Zeckhausen Racing) for reduced dust, and similar performance to OEM.
