Time to get the calipers refurbished in Jan so want to order up new pads and discs

Is Porterfield the recommended for best after market pads? Does anyone have the part numbers for the bigger brakes?

and discs is there any need to get anything other than OEM ?

lastly do i need to buy new wear sensors when changing pads i assume yes?

thanks in advance

The info I have:

Porterfield R4S pads, AP 1750 (front 380 mm), AP 1753 (rear 376 mm)

Nothing wrong with the dustbin lid OEM discs, apart from not looking as cool as some aftermarket ones.
 
You can pick up the (front left and rear right) wear sensors quite cheaply, but if you’re careful to squirt lots of brake cleaner on first they should pull out gently with some long nose pliers and can be reused.
 
I put new rear pads in mine but not the sensors as I changed them before the light came on to tell me they were low.
