Having replaced 100s of pads and discs while working 5 years for the SAAB
importer in Israel, and trying various makes my recomendation about pads and
discs is: Use the Orginal SAAB pads made by ATE. The SAAB P/Ns are 4839700
for the front and 5055967 for the rear, or find them under ATE. Other makes
were terrible squeeking, wearing fast and wearing the discs fast too.
Regarding the discs, I have avery good experience with the original that
don't state a manufacturer P/Ns 4002143 for the front and 8970717 for the
rear. I also found that Brembo and SBS (Swedish Braking Systems) are very
good. I Don't know how Zimmerman will do and never heard of Balo.
Good luck and SAFE SAABING
