Newby assistance with rotors purchase - 125i

Happy Wednesday all,

Had my QLD roadworthy done this morning for rego changeover from ACT. Passed as expected, but the mechanic mentioned this:

- Rotors (front and back) bordering on legal limit and need replacing soon
- Replace the brake pads at the same time as the wear on the pads if used with new rotors could cause some vibration and more squeaking.

I know BMW recommends pads and rotors get replaced at the same time, however idrive is telling me my pads have >40k left before a change is required. So i'm thinking the previous owner just did a brake pad replacement but didnt do the rotors

Long story short I need new rotors and pads if im going to do it properly. So basically:
- Wheres the best place for me to source these?
- Car doesn't many km's, only a weekender really so I don't need performance rotors/pads or anything like that.
- Will I need to also get a new front sensor and rear sensor (I believe there is only 2 sensors not 4)

I will be looking to buy the parts and take them to Mike Webber Prestige and Performance in Brisbane for the install.

Thanks in advance all.
