Rating 5.0

I have the ECS stage1 fronts with mintex C-Tech racing pads and R32 vented rears with stock pads, Super Blue fluid. At summit point Shennedoah circuit which is pretty hard on brakes, I experienced NO fade at all. The pads maintained impressive bite lap after lap, even during one 40 minute session.

Pros: no fade, impressive bite

I just installed Mintex red box pads on my 337 and can't complain. They work just as well as the factory pads and it is a trip to not see the reddish dust on the RCs.

Pros: work as well as factory
Cons: reddish dust on the RCs
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I replaced the rears with Mintex pads and still I get more dust on the rear wheels, but not as much as the VW stock pads.

Pros: less dust than stock
Cons: more dust on wheels

Now as far as brakepads go, stay away from Mintex Redbox and go with PBR/Axxis Deluxe Plus or Metal Master pads. I had really bad experiences with Mintex pads, and I'm currently running Axxis Ultimate pads on my W8!

Pros: great improvement over stock
Cons: bad experiences
