iv'e got mintex ones on mine but they still kick out loads off brake dust even though i don't hammer the brakes but they do stop you well...and before you say it the front brakes arnt sticking..thinking of doing the sri conversion to vented front discs and rear discs..

no, stay away from green stuff, they only eat brake disc's

get either Mintex 1144's, Pagid Fast Road Pads or Ferodo DS

all are very good

I currently have the standard Corsa C 1.2 SXi brake pads on my car and was thinking of upgrading them to somthing like Green Stuff, as they just dont stop me as quick as I want, and they give off loads of dusk.

Are the grean stuff ones any good?? Value for money??
What other ones could I get??
