Default 850 R Brakes

I will shortly want to change pads and disks on my ‘97 850 R. Whilst doing this it would seem appropriate to upgrade to braided hoses. What combination of rotors and pads would you recommend, please? There seem to be many options, from OEM through to high end aftermarket. I have come across Goodridge braided hoses, any good? One of the first jobs I did on the car was replace the brake fluid, so that is done. I noted the rotors are held in place by the wheel nuts, rather than any form of securing bolts. That can’t be good, I assume securing bolts should be added. Thanks.
