you can get centric slotted/dimpled rotors from rockauto.com for like 76 bux each. ebc green pads are good. 429 for that package if it includes pads is a good deal with free shipping imo. i just paid 435 and i got the economy rotors(centric brand) for my 2wd. but mine has new wheel bearings so yea.

Drilled rotors are meant to help with cooling the metal as it gets hot, which reduces warping.

Depending on the type of driving you do I wouldn't really worry about getting drilled rotors.
