Brake Pads

2000 S80 T6
Thinking of replacing front brake pads this weekend with ceramics; $50 for the set.
Any thoughts?

I'll be using the video link to the utube how to as reference.

I can recommend Akebono Euro Ceramic Pads. I've put them on my S60 and my sons 850. May be a little more expensive than what you're looking at but I think they're worth it. Plus NO DUST!

X2 on the Akebono recommendation... Excellent pad and probably the first choice of everyone on the forum...
www.fcpgroton.com or www.eeuroparts.com for it!

I highly recommend Akebono Euro Ceramic Pads.

I installed my a few month ago and they work great and produced no dust--I've not washed my car since and the wheels are still clean.
