Brake pads OEM Volvo or Duralast

I went with Dynamic Friction instead after hearing lots of negative feedback, so far very happy 6 mo later. I drive fast and they stop very well. Does produce quite a bit of brake dust though.

I have Dynamic friction 5000 low metallic pads on my 21 3.3 G70 RWD and love them, better bite but dust a bit more than OEM but no brake judder for the 5k miles I've had them on so far.

I've been using Dynamic Friction 1000141300 track pads from Rockauto. They've seen 6 or 7 track days now and have work really well without overheating. They also do fine on the street.

I have the Dynamic Friction 5000 low metallic pads and they've been a nice improvement. Have no brake judder, better bite, and a bit more dusting from the pads (great tradeoff IMO).

Duralast gold rotors and elite brake pads. Great price and performance. If they wear out too early - free replacement. If they wear out just fine - you got your money’s worth.

I use Dynamic Friction low-metallic 5000 pads, bite better but dust more than OEM, been working well thus far.

For my 2016 V60 I only spend about $500. Also depending on your rotors and pads, there's no need to do both front and rear together.

2021 Volvo xc40, $900 for front brake pads, rotors, cleaning and labor.

Replaced the rears with Duralast Elites today. They are a bit louder (you can hear the pad dragging on the rotor inside the car). Maybe they will not be as loud as they break in.

Volvos seem to eat brakes. My xc60 is horrible on brakes.
