Need Brake Pads
 

For the first time, my "brake wear" light came on. I read that I need to replace the brake pads. Considering I haven't replaced them before since owning the car in 2 years I figure it's about time. I'm not too hard on the car generally, so I'm not looking for a racing type yet at the same time I love my car and I want to get something good. What would be some good budget brake pads for my '00 S? Thanks.

I put Mintex (made by TMD) when I got the car 1500 miles ago. They are awesome and were really inexpensive. TMD makes many of the euro brands, look them up. I'm the type that hates brake dust since my wheels are open and the dust is visible...so long story short I'm taking them off and replacing with Akebono, I have this brand on my Benz and they are awesome, almost zero dust after 500 mile break in.
I'll probably be giving the Mintex away, they are on new rotors so are in perfect shape, problem is I won't be switching them out until my Akebono's get here.
Cheers.
