Their low dust formula means you barely have to spend any time cleaning your wheels! Had them on my old Mk2 Golf and I felt they had the same performance as stock when cold and were much grippier when hot. Never tried other brands though, the low-dust thing sold it for me.

I've run Greenstuff on various cars with good results always. If you drive very very hard, then Redstuff are worth considering.
The reason they're so cheap is that the pad shape on the VX is very simple, so it's not a complicated pad to produce.
I keep good stocks of both front and rear pads usually, and offer 10% off our already discounted price to board members.....
Give us a shout if you decide

How much for a complete set?
I want to change my stock pads for something that will give me more bite.

I'm not at work til Tuesday so not got exact prices. For Greenstuff you'll be looking at just under 60 quid for the lot I believe.
If you drop me an email to pete@pvdnet.co.uk I can reply with prices Tuesday morning, alternatively give me a call Tuesday on 01604 797960.

Tell a lie, I had to come in to work!
Ok fronts are £25.50, rears are £37.50. These prices are already discounted off EBC's RRP.
With a further 10% discount for board members, a set of front and rears is just £56.70!

Got the pads today
Didn't realise the whole pad is green! Will certainly look different with green brake dust 
Wish me luck with the fitting

hope to be fitting my Mintex 1144 this weekend - so we can compare notes/performance at NOMII.
Weren't cheap though - but if Minme says they are good then that's a good recomm.

They're not the best pads - they were pretty poor on my 172 but that was a considerably heavier car - but at the price you guys are getting them I don't think you can argue!
