I just got some of these rotors and installed them however I noticed that I need a brake job as well what pads should I use on them for minimum brake dust and something thats not hard on the life of them as well. Thanks.

having those type of rotors i would expect you to have good pads.
look @ the Hawk brand.
a pair of rotors on hawks/oem should last about 100 000 miles to 200 000
i changed mine @ 200 000 with using the green stuffs.

Hawk HPS work great - and aren't that expensive either.

tirerack.com sells them for $50 - front and $46 for the rear.
