Well Its that time, I need to replace my brakes. They suck, rears are fine but the fronts are done. Rotors are warped and they just dont stop like they should anymore. I am already going with napas drilled and slotted rotors, lifetime warranty and "no Turn" rotors. What need though is the pads. What are your guy's thoughts? I went with the ceramic pads last time and thats what ate up my rotors, I need something though that is gonna handle some hard stops. So semi metalic? ceramic?

No trying to keep it fairly cheap, need to stay under the $300 mark for the rotors and pads this time around

Well I should have had them swapped out a while ago, they are the stock rotors and have about 80k on them.
