Brakes and rotors for 2005 E320 CDI

Any recommendations for brakes and rotors brands for the subject vehicle?

Would OEM pad and Pagid or ATE rotors be a good choice?

FWIW my plan was to stick with MB branded since they can be had for 25% off list.

Zimmerman rotors are good.

I am thinking of OEM pads with ATE coated rotors (10% off at Pelican). ATE is OEM manufacturer.

I do not drive on a track or anything so do not think I need slotted/drilled rotors.
