Hawk HPS pads are good street pads that don't dust.

EBC Greens and Porterfield R4S are also good street pads. I think EBCs dust the least. HPS and R4S still dust a fair amount, but MUCH less than HP+ or race pads. There are a lot of good street pads available.

I generally think that slotted and dimpled are better than drilled, but I think any rotors are fine for street use. OEM-style (solid-face) rotors are best for the track in the stock size. If you will just be using the car on the street, choose the ones that you find most aesthetically pleasing. If you want more info, you can search for the many threads that cover rotor styles.
