Brake pads OEM Nissan or Mintex
Reviews
With a 20% off coupon, it was only $40 more than the other shop, and I got OEM parts. That was almost 3 years ago, and the brakes are still stopping smooth.
Pros: smooth braking, long lasting
Vehicle:
Nissan
I used Mintex 1144 on my MK7.5 ST. Were great for fast road and some Nurburgring laps in a year.
Pros: great for fast road
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Part number: 1144
Adam's front and rear ventilated rotors. Mintex front and rear brake pads. Motul DOT 5.1 Synthetic brake fluid. Goodridge G - Stop stainless steel braided brake lines.
Pros: stainless steel braided lines
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 123504 km
with only time and not use, it should be okay. think of it like putting new brake pads but with rotors that are still within service spec.
Pros: should be okay
Vehicle:
Nissan
Just get standard oem supplier pads from someone like Mintex. They’re going to be everything you need for a daily driver.
Pros: good for daily driving
Vehicle:
Mazda 5
I have a 2020 Rogue SV and it\u2019s pushing 98000. Great car in the Vermont winters , but I\u2019m on my 3rd set of breaks.
Pros: Great car in winters
Cons: 3rd set of breaks
Vehicle:
Nissan
Mileage: 98000 km
Nissan brakes are on this squeak train as well. We barely have a remedy for it, other than ‘regreasing’ them. I tell my customers that the pads are designed with materials for better braking and less dust, at the cost of noisy brakes when cold.
Pros: better braking, less dust
Cons: noisy brakes when cold
when i bought my girling 60 setup the seller threw in a set of mintex red box pads.....i hate them. i was never impressed with the red box's in other cars but on my setup they squealed like crazy when i was off the brakes. i too had the issue with the pads overhanging into the center of the rotor but i took a rolox disc on a die grinder and took a little off the inner portion of the pads. even after doing that they still squeal. plus theyre a real dirty pad and after about 10k miles i only have about 50% pad life left.
Pros: none
Cons: squealed, dirty, wore fast
Mileage: 10000 km
those are worse then stock.
Cons: worse then stock
The stock breaks on these cars were only just good enough when new, after years of wear and tear the breaks are awful. One slightly aggressive stop and that's it your breaks are done for the rest of the day.
Cons: breaks are awful
