Mintex vs. Axxis Brake Pads
I just finished swapping out the stock pads on my 4.8 for the Axxis Deluxe pads. Now I can really skip washing my wheels every few days! On my previous 4.4, I used the Mintex Red Box pads, and they were okay. But they still dusted almost as bad as the stock pads (maybe half as much), and they made the occasional sqeal and groan. The Axxis pads appear to throw out much less dust than the Mintex, and are really quiet too. I didn't change rotors as they are only about 1 month old. Overall stopping power is about the same as before. Now that I have used both types of pads, I would definitely recommend the Axxis brand if you really want a very low dust and quiet pad. Just my $0.02.
