Anyone changed their brake rotors? Good rotors to look at?

Getting close to 33,000 miles, rotors look normal except one on the rear driver's side which looks scratched up and would squeak usually during the first few brakes of driving.

If I were to change out the rears I might as well change both front and back altogether with the pads. Any recommendations for pads and rotors? I daily drive the vehicle

That squeak is probably normal - high performance high metallic content brakes will just squeak when cold - no way around it. Best you can do is lube the crap out of the pads and pins.

I like OE rotors - especially if you have a regular ss - they're dirt cheap on rockauto.
