Thumbs up Mintex Xtreme pads

need new pads given the recdnt track day activity. Has anyone had any experience of the Mintex Extreme pads??? I don;t really want to fit std rears again as they seem to take a beating

Otherwise, any clues where to but Poterfield R4-S's around London???

I not aware of any Porterfield stockists in the UK. All the people advertising them had to get them in from the US which you can do direct from http://www.gruppe-s.com/S2000/s2kbrk.htm

Personally, having used a couple of sets of porterfield r4s, i recommend Ferodo DS2500. You can get those in the UK.
