small update braved the wheather today as my garage is half full of **** that needs to go to the tip to fit my new mintex disc n pads for the front now at least the car will stop alot better and it was a good deal through flebayalot cheaper then what it would have been through lexus


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 20-08-2018

i will let you no how they perform wants there bedded in abit. they look to be of a high standard so i would hope they do the job. i see alot of people like mintex brakes so i would hope they are good


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 20-08-2018

its pos that hard braking early on can mess the brakes up to much pressure to the pads and they dont like that only done about 20 miles in them and its been raining so cant say about dust but ive heard stories about the amount so time will tell on that one

im sure if you have a look at the discs you might be able to tell about the wear of them


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 28-09-2018

Marsdendean The dust is ridiculous what you get from them. I fear the mrs may have done some hard braking within the first few hundred miles which may have killed them Sad

right i have had them on for a while now and they seem to be as good if not better then standard ones no more dust then before so a plus for that
