Can anyone tell me what kind of pads these are? I was told they are stock but I dont think so. My brakes feel like they are glazed and have no initial bight.

 

They look like Mintex to me...

 

take 10minutes out and remove them. Should be some markings on the back, can also check the surface for 'glazing'

 

If they have been in there for more than a few months, the writing on the back will probably be toast.

 

I couldn't figure out how to take them off. The plan was to pull them out and sand them or swap them.

 

I am not very mechanically inclined.

 

I have a track day tomorrow. I imagine these will not work. I had the fluid flushed and replaced with ATE blue.

 

Sorry for the multiple post. The only pads I can get today are factory pads. I imagine they are better than the mintex will be on the track. Should I swap a set of those in tonight?

 

The pads that are in there look pretty new. I wouldn't swap out for a track day. Even the Mintex are near OEM quality.

 

ATE Blue is no longer available in the US and Canada due to a government ban. Use the ATE Gold (Amber) instead.

However, I would not use ATE for any serious track days. Motul or Endless would be much much better.
