Hey dcompress,
I think there may have been a misunderstanding or the box color has changed. Anyway, it should not make a difference what color the box / packaging is as long as you request for the street application pads. From my recollection (although it looks like my memory may need a kick start

) Mintex only makes two types of pads....unless they have come up with a new one since last year that I don't know about w/c is possible. Nevertheless, they are black, as shown in the pic and one of them are semi-metallic (street pads). The second is a racing pad that is blue / black in color but those are metallic and come in a blue box. Anyway, the info that I gave you are the correct ones for the street application.
Maybe someone else can chime in and help you out.
