Seramic brake pads vs. Conventional Pads 850 1993

ha ha. thats pretty bogus bro.
There seems to be a lot of confusion on the whole pad issue so here it is...

The stealership doesnt want u to have them put in aftermarket b/c they do make noise 80% of the time and they cant/wont warranty them and are tired of complaints. Volvo pads are luxury quiet but made so much brake dust on my 850 i had to switch. I went to ebc green pads and they stop great, work great with my new rotors, but can be very noisy. Especially when they warm up. I hear seramic pads by some vendors can be realtivly quiet, however im sure there will always be a low level squeak at some point in your driving experience.
