As above has anyone used them? Are they any good?

 

Thanks

JeffTT has just fitted a set to my Z (along with an upgrade to drilled/grooved discs) and they are good.

 

Whilst not up to the standard of an expensive big brake conversion, they are good value and certainly an upgrade to stock.

Thanks for your reply Richard

Ive used them for a few years and apart from the brake dust they are good value for money and,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, stop the car, which is a bonus :lol::lol:

When i put them on mine the squeal was unbearably loud! so took it back to the garage after doing a fair few miles wearing them in but it remained, thought maybe my discs were bad but they said its all fine and just that the pads are making the noise . Sorry for the negative post but i will not buy this brand again :)

Actually funny you should say about the squeaking, i just fitted new pads a month or so ago and im getting a slight squeak when i put my foot on the brake lightly, need to strip down and take a look as i didnt have this problem with my previous 2 pairs of mintex.

good pads for the money, but squeel like pigs at times.

I've just fitted a set to new drilled and grooved discs but haven't driven the car yet! Hope they don't squeal lol!

They wont squeal initially, give it a few miles, if they are going to do it at all. I put on plenty of cooper grease on the shims, but deffo a pad to disc squeal, might have to emery the pads, might have a bit of dirt or grit trapped.

Remove them, sand the faces down so its dull not shiny and file the leading edge of the pad to an angle
