Default Brakes

Brake pads have just been ordered cause they're almost worn out. Have 90k miles, got the car when it had 50k...it was already equipped with after market slotted rotors, but do I need to replace rotors too?? A buddy told me they can't be milled cause they're slotted...maybe I should just get them looked at. Any suggestions?

Just change them with some good quality flat rotors. Cheap enough not to skip it.

Whichever rotors you get, stay away from Zimmermann crap. Been there myself and the drilled ones are only good to warp after a couple of stops.
