What was the problem with the Yellows? I've used them for years with no issues.

Other options are ferrodo and pagid depending on how much you want to spend and if you are bothered about a lack of wear sensors?

I run standard discs with EBC yellows all round and braided brake lines.
I've heard AP discs are meant to be a good alternative to the standard discs though.
