i have experience with the hawks that tire rack sells. they are very nice. do change front and rear together. the ceramics produce a lot more friction. if you just change the fronts in wet driving you will be locking up the fronts. at least i did. as far as rotors go i would treat the situation the same as if the pads were conventional. if the rotors have plenty of thickness i would use them. if they are thin or warped i would replace them.

no experience with any rotors except oem.
