what I mainly what is some rotor friendly pads....I don't want to have to replace the rotors for awhile cause those things are expensive. I use my car mainly for daily commute. I race it or anything.

whatever u get, don't get mintex extreme. stupid sticky stuff they put on the back of those pads just make it impossible to keep quiet; shims, grease, nothing works. they were fantastic on the track tho. just super noisy and dusty.
