Mintex brake pads
Has anybody had any experience with these?
I got them for Christmas from son who bought as a package with new rotors, and I cann't seem to find a lot of info on them.
Any input is appreciated.
thx

Mintex are big with European cars - we use them on our New Beetles with great stopping and durability - much better than stock VW.
They are not dust free.
I would consider them for my '02 C5 - had no idea they fitted them to our Vettes. What rotors did you get?

Brembo rotors. Drilled and slotted. Kid bought the rotors and took a flier on the pads.
And my LG Headers are sitting on a truck somewhere between Dallas and Chi-town.
C5 us up on the stands already, anxiously awaiting surgury.
Uh oh. You and I graduated in same year. '73 Go Illini!
