Need new rotors on my 09Clk350amg- Help

Hay guys, So i got my car back from some warranty work and they said i need new Brakes and Rotors. they said it should last out a month or 2 (and i barely drive the car) the car only has about 30k miles on it. i believe my car has the 030 sports package on it because it has the whole amg kit along with some HUGE breaks in the front. i looked into aftermarket replacements and it seems most do not fit the sports package clk. i really wanted the R1 concept rotors and the only option they had was exc Sport Pkg-1 Piston Front Caliper.
then i went on the tirerack website and they have StopTech SportStop Drilled Rotor (Performance Street) and StopTech Cryo-SportStop Drilled Rotor (Performance Street listed for my car. what would you recommend. also i am looking into brakes. i was thinking stock MB brakes (can someone provide me with a parts number for front and back) other brakes i was looking into are Akebono Euro Ceramic Pads (Premium) Ebc redstuff and maybe hawk. if someone can point me into the right direction.
thanks again.
also while i get these brakes and rotors installed i was thinking about putting in some H&R springs

30K for brakes is about right. You may have the AMG/sport appearance package, but I don't believe you have the sport suspension package. Those look like the standard fixed-caliper brakes. As for pads, personally, I don't like the Akebonos - they are way too soft, though they are dust-free. If you can find Porterfields, that would be my first choice over OEMs.

I think what you are calling "sport brakes" are just the V8 brakes. The V6 comes base with 11.8" rotors and single-piston floating caliper brakes in front, 11.4" rotors with dual-piston fixed caliper brakes in rear. The V8 comes with 13.6" cross-drilled rotors and 4-piston fixed caliper brakes in front, and 11.8" rotors with dual-piston fixed calipers in rear. Those look like the V8 brakes. Normally, the sport appearance and sport suspension packages were not available on the V6, but since 2009 was the last year for the CLK, they made a special "final edition" package available for the the V6 that included many of the features of the V* like the sport appearance package. I am guessing (from looking at your photos) that also included the V8's brakes.
