1. Do I need to replace pads as well as rotors?
2. How long do rotors normally last?
3. Any certain brake pads/rotors you guys recommend other than OEM?
4. Are the front and rear pads the same? Or are they different?

Thank you!
I'm not a fan of the oem pads. Way too much dust. I like the Akebono Euro pads. I had them in my E70 and Merc before that. I just got my F15 and they put new brakes all around. Already ordered my Akebono pads to swap them out.
