mintex brake pads

what do you guys think of mintex brake pads, i was trying to get the axxis delux and the brembo drilled rotors for tuesday but if i want the axxis i`ll have to wait longer and my breakes are a bit low about 3.1 mm front and 3.5mm back. the light will be on any time. should i wait or are mintex pads just as good ?

I now have 53K miles on my Mintex Red Box pads and have been very pleased with them. They significantly cut the amount of brake dust versus the OEM pads, and their longevity has more than surpassed my expectations. I have a set of Axxis Deluxe pads sitting in a box out the garage waiting for the Mintex pads to wear out - but they just won't quit.

I would definately give the Mintex pads two thumbs up
