Default Brake job on my 99 S80 T6

Hi guys,

It's time for me to do a brake job om my 1999 S80 T6. Anyone have ever tried to replace
the discs and pads with after market parts. An after-market store have quoted me on
a Zimmerman discs and DanBlock Pads. Do you know if this should work normal or
it will be noisy ??
Thanks, Zoro

I don't know about the S80 but on my cars I will use nothing but OEM. I tried aftermarket once and took them off and replaced with OEM after a couple thousand miles. I don't remember exactly why, but I did not like them at all. Here is a link to where I recently bought pads for my 850.

I agree with JimW
The best to use is the OEM parts.
