I'm running the JURID pads, too, and I'm at a little over 13k miles. No issues whatsoever...
I'd also replace the brake pads with ceramic (same/less cost than OEM) as they stop better and shed very little brake dust unlike the OEM Volvo units.
I have 2005 S60 Turbo as a daily. Bought it brand new in 2005 and she now has 157,000 trouble-free miles. However, being a European car, replacement items can be pretty expensive. I've replaced: brakes and rotors ($1,200).
I can tell the pads are fairly recent and are Jurid brand so I know they've been replaced recently.
You will need good 9.4" vented rotors & good pads like Ferodo, Pagid or Jurid.
Jurid,like Pagid and ATE,and Lucas/Girling are all OEM suppliers to VW,the Jurid pads are a OEM replacement and make a hell of a lot of dust,but are less likely to "squeek" due to their softer compound.
I got those JURID and will have them installed in the same time as my suspension. Someone told me on the brakes forum that JURID makes pads for Porsches, so I don't think I can go wrong with that.
Bought my gf a 96 850 turbo meticulously maintained, odo is broken at 312, car should be neering 500k, doesnt burn leak anything, drive amazing on the high and returns 21.3 mpg, only think i dont like about it is no off the line grunt and the brakes arent the best.
Jurid = stock BMW E36M3 pads, pretty good on the street, not to good on the track. DOn't know if there are different types
