text: If you want less stopping power, then buy these. At first, these pads seemed the closest thing to an original pad, but with less dust. Then I drove when it was cold and wet and I lost all brakes. I have tried 4 different brake pads on the XC90 and these Bosch pads are good when warm and dry, but the worst of them all when cold and wet. Imagine you need to make an emergency stop when it is raining or snowing, good luck. I had to remember to keep on tapping on the brakes before stopping to be safe. If you live in Arizona, this would probably work. If you live where you get wet or snow seasons, I would not recommend these pads.
