   We are in talks with a rather cool brake pad manufacturer who wants to know what our customers currently fit to their cars so I'm after a little feedback..
   
   What do you have fitted and how do you rate them?
   Mintex, pagid, ferodo etc???

   Tarox for me... I've never used any other pad with this setup, so I cannot rate it really. Braking is very good, but I know that's means nothing.

   I have mintex pads and discs, not the fancy ones, just a mintex brake box jobby. had green stuff before and the mintex are so much better. Very happy with them, never felt like i need more braking power.

   Same as above. Using a 283mm 6 pot setup so braking is absolutely insane compared to standard 1.0i setup i had before
