Default Rear brake pads/rotors suggestions?

hey guys, im looking to replace my rear brake pads/rotors i was wondering if you guys have any suggestions as in where i should get them from and which kind ?

i found these as far as rotors:
http://www.mjmautohaus.com/catalog/p...oducts_id=2148

as far as the pads:
http://www.mjmautohaus.com/catalog/p...oducts_id=1196

which brand of pads would you recommend, the OEM ATE brand?
how about Ceramic's or Brandwise would you say there's major difference between Hawk, mintex, pba ect?

Thanks a lot

the rears aren't really important. i wouldn't go super cheap but there's really no need for upgrading

Yeah, my front rotors are brembo slotted rotor with brembo pads. Got them from tirerack.com. But my rear rotors are OEM and pads are from Germanautoparts.com (Jurid pads)
