My '07 is still running the OEM setup it was delivered with when I picked it up from the dealership 4 years ago. It's getting to the point where my front rotors need to be machined.... but I wanted to see what my other options are.

I want to know what people are running on their 3. Do you still use the OEM setup. If you've gone aftermarket, what rotors are you using? What brake pads are you using?

The last time I purchased aftermarket, I used the setup of BAER slotted/ crossdrilled rotors and KVR carbon pads. I had this on both my previous Civic and EL. It worked just fine for me.

Any suggestions? Opinions? Comments?

Thanks.

I still have OEM. I don't think the rotors have been changed since the car was purchased in 2004. But I believe the brake pads were changed shortly before I purchased it.

I'm planning on going after market. Not sure of which rotors, but I think I might go with Hawk pads of some sort.
