RE: Brake Pads

I think we all would reccomend the OEM brake pads .. ceramic pads from "volvo" I believe....

See http://www.fcpgroton.com/category-ex...168/by_year/52 for more info on the brakes..

If you are changing the rotors as well, brembo or zimmerman are the OEM brands..

RE: Brake Pads

Im not sure if Akebonoare the OEM but I have heard good things about them.. generally, stick to ceramics, they wear faster but I find they perform better..
