My more recent experiences of Mintex is poor, just taken the rear disc off my wife’s V50 which were Mintex. They have done 50k but the surfaces has worn as though the pads were made of course sandpaper and they have several cracks in them. Took the front ones off after about 10k due to judder.

Yes they are affordable but they aren’t as good I think. Genuine discs and pads always wear almost like a mirror finish.
