i had red stuff before and theyre shocking, ive now got ferrodo ds2500 and theyre an awesome pad, good bite from cold and no fading when hot.

Can't say anything about the mintex but I have the Ferrodo pads and they are excellent, just buy a lot of wheel cleaner

This is my 3rd car I used Ferodo DS2500 on.
And I still think it's one of the best for every and trackday use.
From cold working well, with Stainless steel brakeline kit even better.
Obtaining the brake pedal feeling.
The downside is you have to clean the wheels a lot.
