I'm using mintex pads too. Not bad, but they do dust the wheels... maybe not as bad as factory pads, but I'm forever cleaning dust off my new carrera lights.
They seem to wear well and don't squeak much unless I haven't washed my car lately. I always blast the pads and rotors with fresh water from the hose every time I wash the car and this has nearly eliminated my brakes from squeaking. In fact, when they start squeaking regularly I know its my reminder to hand wash the car
