Time for brakes

Rockauto.com is probably the best site for parts IMO

I just did my rears for $117 for premium rotors and ceramic pads (Did them myself). I went to Autozone and ordered online (pickup in store). There are almost always promos going. I got 20% off my order because it was over $100. So far, they've been going great. I'd think the fronts won't be much more. If you don't already have one, get a breaker bar for the caliper bolts. They're large and tight. I grabbed on at Harbor Freight for $20 and a set of impact sockets for the same $20.

Proper break in is more important than anything. Be gentle on your brakes for the first few hundred miles. Don't leave the brakes on when hot (sitting at lights or in traffic). The multiple heat cycles burn off the resins and binding agents in the pads as well as curing the adhesive that holds the pad on the metal. This heating/cooling also tempers the metal of the discs and makes them nice and hard.
