Brake pads POWER STOP or Ferodo

I run power stops on my big turbo daily. Haven't had any issues or noises from them and they work/look great. Been running them for almost 3 years now

I run DS3.12 now and ran DS1.11 on my previous car on track and love them (better then PFC-08)

My stock OEM pads are Ferodo DS2500 and I love them for daily and light track days.

Personally, I’m a fan of Ferodo, but I typically need to get them from the UK.

The AP Racing kit was installed with a set of Ferodo DS2500s in the front and stock OEM pads installed fresh in the rear.

I did tons of research and settled on Ferodo DS3.12 (FCP4425G) in front and DS1.11 (FCP4697W) rear with Castrol SRF fluid. Stock R calipers and rotors have held up as well as any aftermarkets I read about for MUCH less $. Zero issues, and cheap.

I too have used powerstops with more than satisfactory results. Shorter stopping distances with less brake dust.

I've used powerstops and bosch on my xc60. Braking performance felt slightly improved from the OEM for both. The powerstops (Z23 model) are also significantly less dusty, while the bosch pads produced about the same amount of dust as the OEM.

Just to back up Copbait, I’ve used the Z23s on my vehicles as well. You can feel they reduce the braking distance and almost no dust as well.

Yeah use OEM rotors with DS2500 pads. That will be a great setup! Actually, DS2500 might be a bit too much for street, since they are pretty dusty and a little noisy.
