I had a bad experience with Mintex Red Box. I put a total of 25 miles on a
set, aggressively bedding them in, and took the rears all the way down to
metal.

I doubt it was me, and I don't think it was a bad pair of pads...as a
result, I would not recommend them for any car that may be driven in a
sporting manner.
