Default Re: Brake Pads and Discs

I'm assuming that since you linked to a UK auction, you're from there. I'm not familiar with Mintex brakes (never head of them in fact) but buy the best brakes you can afford. Why put your life and others at risk to save a couple bucks? Over here, Raybestos and Wagner offer quality stock replacements. Replacement pads are $25 and go up from there depending on what kind of pad you want. Rotors are $28/ea and up. That's quoted from one of the cheapest online parts stores so expect to pay a little more in store. Going by price alone, those ones you linked to should hopefully be a good set if they're charging that much. £80 = ~$135 US.
