Longevity - I got only 23K from the OEM pads, which I thought was terrible. I got 57K from the Mintex Red Box pads - well over double the OEM pads. So far I only have about 1K on the Axxis, so it's too soon to tell how long they will last.

Contact Dave Z. at http://www.zeckhausen.com/ and he can send you a set of Axxis pads at a good price. Tell him that you were referred by X5world (UCrewX5) and see if he'll give you a discount

I also got a set of Axxis pads sent to me by Dave for about $100 front and rear. They are sweet. After brake in they feel as good as OEM and minimal dust Sorry I have never used Mintex.
