Brake pads OEM Volvo or STOPTECH
I have stoptech "performance brake pads" on my front and rear. Feels like OEM but more dusty
It's a solid pedal feel.
To me it looks like brake pad material on your rotors due to your street pads melting. Slap a new set a cheap pads on there from Autozone or something and drive it for a week or two that material should come off. As long as you don’t have vibration while braking they should still be good. Just make sure to use track pads next time. I personally run StopTech 309 pads because they’re good on track and street
I got Stoptech Sport pads that I've used on track and street for many years.
I run StopTech Sport pads on my E92 M3 and they hold up very well for a dual duty pad. I prefer them over the other options listed.
For my 2016 V60 I only spend about $500. Also depending on your rotors and pads, there's no need to do both front and rear together.
I replaced the front pads myself after 25,000 miles (was 2 years ago), it cost me under $200, including all the necessary tools and original Volvo pads.
Stoptech street performance. Probably worse than stock but still plenty for street/autocross and a lot less dusty
2021 Volvo xc40, $900 for front brake pads, rotors, cleaning and labor.
Volvos seem to eat brakes. My xc60 is horrible on brakes.
