If you want your car to stop well, these are not the pads for you. Using them on my A4 on a road course made them fade BADLY....to the point I have 12" flames coming out of my front wheels at the end of the straight. Not good for performance driving. Not anywhere NEAR good.

Flames!!! You had flames coming from your brake pads??? I have never seen that at a DE or track day. Sounds like something was really really wrong, undersized, mismatched etc.

The Mintex front pads are still in. Should say they are front pads for a 2.5. Friction ratings are EE which is a bit lower than the factory FF. I have noticed no difference between the Mintex and the factory Galfer pads.

And I still do not know what "red box" pads are supposed to be.

Do you prefer Mentex over Pagid?
