Thinking of getting these. Have heard some good reviews and they're not too expensive. Will not be doing autoX. Just need OE or the like replacements.
What do you guy's think?

Ebay is not a place I'd shop for safety items like brakes. I also would not run cheap cross-drilled rotors. For $212 + shipping, you can get a complete front & rear Centric setup from TireRack. I consider that a ~$100 well spent consider you'd be getting a product that is, at the bare minimum, OEM quality, but from my experience likely better.
*edit*
I just built a quality combo on RockAuto for $164 + shipping using Centric (non-CTEK) parts.

Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed... I will. I got spare time. But for now, for your customer's sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me.

Think i'm going with the Centric Premiums and ceramic pads.
Just started to hit the squeakers on the pads and have had a vibration/ pulsation when braking.

Ceramic: quieter & less dust
Semi-metallic: better performance but dusty

Yea I've heard to just go with ceramic for a DD. Coworker told me they don't eat through the rotors as fast either.

True, ceramics are a great DD pad if you don't really push it or drive aggressively.
