Pads = Akebono (dustless, great performance once bedded-in properly)
Rotors = ATE or Balo (standard solid discs, not vented, slotted or drilled)

If you replace the fronts, might as well repack the bearings. You'll need a good breaker bar for the 10mm Allens holding the rotor to the hub.

If you replace the rears, replacement of the discs is straightforward. No need to repack any bearings unlike the fronts. I just did this job a few weeks ago. Very happy with Akebono pads all around and ATE discs (all new). Dustless, quiet, great braking ability once bedded in properly.
