Shiny new Mintex brakes
 

Just got these off fleabay for £84 odd. Half expected them to be packaged under aother name, or only the pads to be Mintex.
I was pleasantly suprised to open the box to all sealed mintex packaging. I have seen some bad examples of pads and disks in my time but these look OK. Or very good knock-offs anyway.

There goes a day next week again. But what else are half-terms for.:D

I have mintex discs and pads all round,the price seems about right..mine were cheaper being supplied trade

I've heard reports of this brand wearing out very quickly due to the soft compound and also squealing,I would report no such findings..

Bet they are better than the ebm/red stuff i have .......£300' pounds worth of warped steel, rubbish.....

I bought Unipart discs and pads all around and after almost 700 miles not a single squeek and braking is superb.

As far as I can remember, price was in range with mintex, if not cheaper.

sounds like a similar scenario I'm having with the wifes megane,warped discs within a few months and these were an OEM fitment,as we speak I'm trying to get a refund due to a faulty part..

Good luck ...I had a go with them but warp wasnt detected until mot 3 months or so later...:shrug: now it get worse with use , but only at high speed , ill have to chang them soon though....the makers just wouldnt have it so ..there you are ....like i say good luck hope you get something off them
