I'm a long term advocate of ATE pads. I recently also coated my wheels with Gyeon Quartz Q2 rim protection.
I've washed the car a couple of times since getting the new rotors and ATE ceramics fitted just prior to Christmas, the wheels have barely required any work. And when you've got the Solitudes, that's a massive time saving - these wheels are a massive pita to clean.
The feel of the brakes took a little while to get used to, esp. given how few km's I do per week, but I much prefer them now.
I wouldn't mind changing to something like Chicagos when I need to get new tyres, though that might be at least a couple of years away, sadly!
