Daily Driver Brake Rotors
I'm getting to where I need new pads on my RSX. The rotors are warped a little and vibrate when braking so I'm going to swap them out as well. I'm going to get some good street pads, but I'm curious to hear opinions on rotors.
For street driving, is there any benefit to an expensive rotor vs a cheap rotor? Do good rotors last longer? Resist warping? Reduce stopping distance? I would've just asked on a honda forum, but figured you guys would probably be a more reliable source.

I've seen the bottom of the barrel AutoZone stuff wear out prematurely on Civics and other econobox type cars but I doubt anybody sells anything that crappy for an RSX, +1 for Centric brakes though. I currently have stoptech drilled and slotted on the STO that I daily but only because they were on sale at RockAuto for less than anything else, no idea how that worked out but they look pretty.
