if you have a need to replace the rotors, those look like they'll do the job. The car won't stop much differently with those rotors than with the stock rotors as you'll still have the same hydraulic system and the same swept area of the brake pads. The cross-drilled rotors will benefit you if you do repeated high speed braking as they will cool off faster and reduce brake fade. Unless you're racing, then you'll probably not notice the difference. The price is better than the factory rotors through a honda dealer, so again, if you need to replace the rotors for wear then these are a good alternative. If you're looking to improve braking performance, they probably won't help much with everyday driving.I've used the ceramic pads that are partnered with the rotors in the add. I didn't find them to last any longer than the factory pads but they do seem to have less dust and less noise. They are actually more expensive than the front factory pads for the Civic.hope that answers your question
