Which pads should i use? I have the lifetime warrantied ones from auto zone now. Plus the warped rotors make my ABS go hyper active as well.

Turning them is a temporary solution, since what's really happening is at a molecular level, invisible to the eye. "Warped" Rotors and Other Myths Function before fashion.
