Heh am getting a full set of proflex discs. Just wondering where is the best place to get mintex xtreme pads pads from. Thanks Chris in Ireland

Oh ya are mintex better than EBC green stuf pads. Thanks again

You can get mintex pads off ebay, i've never had green stuff pads but the mintex ones have been very good and i know that there are a few owners who have had both and preferred the mintex ones.

Alrite cheers will get those so. Will get back to let yawl know how I got on

used EBC in the past and there c**p , used standard Mintex and currently on Mintex Xtreme and both been very good.

Dave at Prolex should be able to sort you out with the pads, Ebay will have some and your local Autoparts should be able to get them too.

i recommend mimtex, used them on my rover all day long, didn't have to upgrade the brakes with standard disc when running 350bhp in the old beast

mintex is awesome!almost no dust.throw the OEM pads and get mintex.

I had greenstuff pads on and found them to be OK braking wise but dusty, changed all to Mintex pads and discs and they are much better all round IMHO.

Am I the only one who has left sorely disappointed by the mintex extreme pads?! I ran than on my (pretty much) stock is200, replaced my old pads with the mintex because I had a squeek on my front right wheel (figured the brakes need replacing). I had the brake pedal tightened at the same time, within 2 months the brake pedal is really long again and the squeek has come back! - does this mean ive worn the pads already? I only drive evenings and weekends and dont really push the car to its limits!!?

I could be wrong - any ideas what the squeek could be when I brake!?

(i bought the pads new from ebay)

did you put plenty of copper slip on the back of the shims/pads
