Brake pads DBA or Mintex

DBA Sport. Heaps less dust than oem.

I’m at 155,000km and I’m about to replace my OEM rotors and pads this month with DBA slotted rotors + DBA XP/SP brake pads. I do 75% highway driving and I never have to brake hard.

Just get standard oem supplier pads from someone like Mintex. They’re going to be everything you need for a daily driver.

In short: support your local motor factors, and buy Mintex brakes and pads. I've a 107 and the Mintex pads/brakes have been brilliant.

I've got a set of Mintex ones, reasonably cheap and work well for the street.

While I am not overly impressed with the stopping power for the price, I am impressed with how much less they wear after a track day.

Mintex is a step below the OEM Jurid/ATE/TRW pads in terms of friction coefficient. Mintex is an upgrade when it comes to dust. Right now, running Akebono Euro Ceramics... I won't come to my verdict until winter.

when i bought my girling 60 setup the seller threw in a set of mintex red box pads.....i hate them. i was never impressed with the red box's in other cars but on my setup they squealed like crazy when i was off the brakes. i too had the issue with the pads overhanging into the center of the rotor but i took a rolox disc on a die grinder and took a little off the inner portion of the pads. even after doing that they still squeal. plus theyre a real dirty pad and after about 10k miles i only have about 50% pad life left.

those are worse then stock.

stay away from mintex red box. i have them.. the stop great.. but they are the dustiest and noisest pad I have ever installed.
