Damned mountains, rotors starting to warp

I live in the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania and they are treacherous on stock brakes of any vehicle. I need to upgrade these puppys and get slotted or dimpled or both high performance rotors and good heat distributing pads. Any suggestions?

I drive amongst the Green Mountains of Vermont (and New Hampshire).

I JUST replaced my '11 S AWD front (90,266) and rear (85,something) rotors with SP Performance slotted rotors and their semi-metallic pads.
I got them from TopBrakes.com

Too soon to tell about wear, but I haven't yet had any fade.

You might also look at Disc Italia.



I mean, naturally, immediately after having them installed, I drove it through Smugglers Notch.

(Make sure they mount the slotted rotors the right way; hubs are marked to help.)
