Which brake rotors and pads to buy ?

I have ART (appliedrotortechnology.com) units on my 2001 Ex and they are much better then stock. I've got over 30K miles on 'em with no problems. If I was doing them now, I would go to performancefriction.com and get their two piece rotors. This is supposed to all but eliminate vibration that occurs at the rotor to hub mating. Also, their pads are what comes with the ART rotors.

Torquing the wheels IMproperly, IMEO, is a major cause of rotor warpage no matter the brand or treatment done to them.
I had ARTs and they warped, by (what I think) was the shop who repaired it after the wreck, improperly retorquing the replacement wheel.

I would just give PFC a call. Their website is poor, but they'll help you via phone. 800 521-8874.
I really haven't had any problems with the ART units, but I still get some vibration. I'm not sure if it's the brakes or another driveline component, because it doesn't feel like warped rotors.
