Brakes S40-V40

What aftermarket brake pads are people using? I'm looking to replace my rear pads and probably the rotors as well. I really want to get away from the Volvo pads because of the dust and wear. I've seen that PBR and PRO now make rear pads for my S40 but I was wondering if anyone has actually used these brands?

Thanks for the help.

I´ve used EBC GreenStuff pads, and i think they are great.
Low dust, "good bite" and they wasn´t too expensive.
And as long life as OEM.

They are designed for Street -> Fast Street -> Ligh Race Cars

I installed FCP Groton pads and rotors on the rear of my V40 00. They work great. A good friend did the fronts on his S40 01, he is happy with his too.
