Warped disk happen usually because of hard braking, or shit quality disks are being used.

My advice would be to spend the money on some nice brembo or DBA disks when you going get your brakes sorted out.

I find that the Xdrilled / slotted ones eat up the brake pad alot quicker though, or maybe its the pads i have? LOL

Slotted & Drilled will eat away more then just slotted. But if you get a descent performance pad with your new slotted disc you should be a happy camper.

There will always be slightly more wear/brake dust due to the brakes being able to grip more. Its inevitable.
