Rating 4.0

I can recommend TRW „DTEC“ pads. Almost no brake dust, no squeaking, good bite on the breaks. The only trade of is that when it’s really cold or raining and you drive on the highway for a long time, the first half of a second when you break again the performance is weak. That’s what I experienced. I never had this with the original pads in winter time or heavy rain.

Pros: no dust, no squeaking
Cons: weak performance in cold/rain
Part number: DTEC

I went with TRW Ultra ceramic pads and Zimmerman rotors from FCP Euro for my S90. It was a big upgrade from OEM in my experience.

Pros: big upgrade from OEM

I've been using Brembo pads for more than 300km after bedding. The package is super tidy. It came with an installation manual. The pad looks beautifully made. The materials feel nice. The Brembo is way more smoother than the OEM (Textar). Textar is more harsh, especially in traffic. I swapped the pads with Brembo and the problem of stopping smoothly went away instantly. It creates way less dust than Textar.

Pros: smooth braking, less dust
Cons: more expensive, red backside

Brembo Brake pads

My brakes are starting to squeak so I contacted my local Subaru dealership to get quoted on my front brakes as the rear are still in good condition. They quoted me for $1200 to replace the brembo pads and rotors as they insisted that drilled rotors need to be replaced EVERY TIME you change the brake pads as they cannot be resurfaced.

Cons: expensive, cannot be resurfaced
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 33000 km
