Brembo Brake pads

Rating 5.0

You've been quoted £1150 FOR A BRAKE JOB?! To put it into perspective, you can get fairly high end pads and discs (Brembo and the likes) for around £4-500 if you look around, and the job takes 2 hours tops.

Pros: high end parts available
Cons: expensive dealer quote
Vehicle: Volvo XC60

Brembo Brake pads

Ordered brembo brakes (fronts and rears 4 pots) from the same gen Camaro for my VE SSV from Amazon in the US and got it shipped to AUS. Later on found genuine Camaro wheels in SA that I bought for the Commy. Looked the tits and car really pulled up hard. Great upgrade.

Pros: pulled up hard, great upgrade

I had Brembo rotors and ceramic pads front and rear on my 2017 V60 T5. Rotors were fine, the pads wore out ridiculously fast. Switched to Akebono pads and was much happier. They lasted literally twice as long.

Pros: Akebono pads long lasting
Cons: Brembo pads wore out fast

Brembos are street pads, they are designed to be low noise and low dust. They’re not for any sort of aggressive driving.

Pros: low noise, low dust
Cons: not for aggressive driving

My brakes are overheating when I break the car from around 190kph (118mph) to around 30kph (19mph), I smell the brakes burning and see a lot of brake dust on the wheel. Even the brakes feel a bit spongy for a while after, but it firms back up.

Cons: overheating, spongy feel
