    you can use oem pads. the drilled rotors won't do much but disperse heat better thats all. if you got the slotted ones, theyll improve stopping a little bit at the cost of shorter pad life.

    the kind of brakes you use should not matter. It just depends on how good you want your stopping power to be.

    use oem pads or softer if you can get them, i killed my brembo's with nopi bought semi metallic pads, and i mean killed! no more gone 190 bux drowned cause i used hard semi metalic pads which tore through the rotor leaving grooves and deep ridges and uneven surfaces, you can't resurface cross drilled rotors :p.
