I have used the Greenstuff on other of my 9-5s in the past. I found them to have good stopping power with slightly higher effort. In my current 9-5s ('02 and '05 Aero) i've gone to the Akebonos. I switched out rotors on the '02 at 50k (first change, rotors trashed from OEM pads) and put in Akebonos. I've just turned 68k and the rotors still look smooth, just the machining ridges are visible, no apparent wer. the pads lkook to be about one third worn if that and the dust is minimal. Pedal effort is initally high (like with the Greenstuff), stopping power is excellent. I just recently did the rears as well.
