[s-cars] NAC Pad advice sought

[Taka Mizutani]

I won't use any ceramic pads- I've plenty of bad experiences with rental
cars that run ceramics as OE (a lot of GM cars).

If you stick with OE compound pads, they'll be fine- Textar, Jurid and Ate
make pads for the Volvo that are low noise and decent performance. They
dust a lot, but that seems to be the way the European OEs have their
priorities arranged.

I'm currently running Stoptech Street Performance pads and have been pretty
happy with them- they are moderate dust (possibly lower than the Hawk HPS I
was using), lower noise than the HPS but more than OE Volvo and cheap ($70
compared to $125 for HPS and $130+ for OE Volvo).
