Brembo off Ebay. Their brakes last 75k and they're so popular they are scalped from the manufacturers website in minutes lol!

Pros: long lasting

I ended up buying the brembo pads after getting power stop. These brakes can squeak so go for the gold.

Pros: go for the gold
Cons: can squeak

Brembo SA/SP material for good performance price ratio.

Brembo LA material for longevity vs performance ratio.

Pros: good performance price ratio
Cons: longevity vs performance

I use brembro all the time, and they honestly last longer I think. I use them on my 9-3 2.8V6 convertible

Edit: I used the M-tec rotates drilled and grooved with the brembro brakes, front and rear

My braking is much better especially on a long drive with hot days, no brake fade at all

Pros: last longer, better braking
Cons: rotates drilled and grooved
Vehicle: Saab

The brakes that come with the performance package have plenty of stopping power and never leave you wanting for more.

Pros: plenty stopping power

I run carbotech xp8 on the front of my c5. Still a group 2 level driver. They’re a good pad for a car that’s driven to the track and home, but dirty and noisy at times for a street pad. They’re considered entry level track pads. I chew up rotors but don’t get fade, but my local tracks aren’t particularly hard on brakes

Pros: good for track and street
Cons: dirty, noisy, chews rotors

I put some Brembo prime pads on my S80 I had them on before and were pretty solid, until they were about 80% worn and braking performance fell off a cliff Put new prime pads all round and for the first 2k miles they were amazing, very sharp brake feel but again performance started to degraded noticeably From cold they're crap, after about 5 minutes of driving when they warm up they bite as they should, also dust like mad, I left a 3 star review on AutoDoc and they gave me a full refund citing this could be a potential warranty issue, although I reckon that's them not wanting bad reviews on their site I'm probably going to go for Bosch next as that's the OEM Volvo use

Pros: sharp brake feel initially
Cons: poor cold performance, excessive dust
Vehicle: Volvo S80
Mileage: 2000 km
