Can I bed my new rotors with my existing OEM pads? Should I sand those flat?

I you re-bed the pads / rotors after each change you should be golden. There's no need to sandpaper them, unless you have pad deposits on the rotor.

That's like asking for tires with lots of grip that last for 50k miles. :-(

Thanks for the reply!

And I take it more as, which street tires offer the most grip for the track? RS3's, RE-11's, NT-01's... Something to that effect
Now, which ones offer the most grip without making me go deaf, Michelin PSS's
