Default Planning to do a brake job

The brakes on my 99 S70 are pretty much shot so I want to do a brake job. In terms of parts, this is what I'm planning on ordering from fcpgroton:

OEM Front Pads
OEM Rear Pads
Zimmermann Front Rotors
Zimmermann Rear Rotors
Brake Cleaner
Brake Pad Grease

Are there any parts that I'm forgetting and do you think this combination will provide good non-squeak braking performance? Thanks a bunch.

You should be fine with that setup that is what we use everyday at work.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was wondering what the lug nut size is for the base model S70 (no alloy wheels)? Thanks very much.

Do you mean by what size socket on the lugs? If so it is a 19mm.
