In Reply to: any thoughts on Mintex pads? posted by michael c on April 05, 2001 at 09:45:13:

I had these on my 5 and found that they overheat very quickly, they dust like mad, and they give you horrible feel. I then switched over to Porterfeild Ent. R4S pads for the street and auto-x and the pads are 100 times better. If you want a more performance oriented pad you can always go for their race compound. Even though they do not claim to be dustless, my pads dust very little and well, they work really well, just ask Chris Graff.
Supposedly Mintex has redone all of their compounds since I last purchased pads from them, but I am not going back.
