if you keep them checked and watch your pad life you should do fine from what ive heard about rotors but the previous owner sold my car with bad pads so the rotors were warped when i got it. new ones are bein put in soon tho.

if you use strictly organic pads, then you "can" replace the pads more often than the rotors..
but you "can" stop better with semi metallic.

Very true. But if you’re not too hard on stopping you can get away with the way you’re doing but you should check the thickness on the rotors if they get to thin get hotter you can have warp rotors, heat fade, glazed pads. All can be bad for stopping. It all depends on how you drive & use brakes most of the time for stopping.
It sound like your not too hard on the brakes so good rotors & organic pads would work for you if you’re changing them & checking them allot. So you do not let them get to wore out. Before changing them out.
Just keep the pins and slider clean lubed (with brake lube)
