Do feel there is a bit of fade in mine when am going somewhere on B roads in a hurry. Havnt checked what sort of wear are on the pads etc.
Interested to hear if you go for the bigger ones if its a big difference.

I live on A and B roads, nearest dual carrageway is an hour away. Have the standard 316 disks on manual D5 xc70. Tow regularly. Drive spiritedly. Have never experienced brake fade on the volvo. Have on other cars and know full well what it feels like.
Your car your money and if you want them go for it. I don't think bigger disks are nessesary so will put the extra cash into the tank.
