Agree with Tim about Mintex
Also they blacken your wheels 3 times as fast as OEM.

ATE are a big name in brakes, surprised some folks on here haven't heard of them..?
I've just had to fit cheap & nasty pads on my rear brakes. This was necessary because the sales woman at car spares over Dudley way gave me the fronts instead of the rears & I only found out when the car was on a stand & when I opened the box I said a few nasty words. No car & no replacement pads meant I had to walk down the local motor spares shop & buy whatever they had in stock. The quality of the pads was very poor compared with the Ferodo front ones I'd been wrongly supplied. http://www.ate-brakes.com Last edited by bad-head-day; 27th March 2009 at 17:30..

thanks for the answers everybody
talking with some friends they recommend Mintex or Ferodo. the mechanic recommended TRW. sellers recommend ATE ... i found the originals at rimmerbros (thank you tazman3) and they got a good price. but the shipping is killing me ((( so far i really don't know what to go for ... so many opinions ... so many contradictory opinions ... i spent the last day searching the forums about this topic ... when i was about to get convinced that a brand is good ... on other forums people were not recommending that brand ... can you also help me with this too? http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...174#post305174 thank you
