My car needs some new pads. The brakes are Hi-spec 4 pots. Was looking at getting some Mintex 1144's, but i dont know what ones i need because aren't they car specific?

Any help appreciated

Dealers usually have a book with the pad shapes in. Try drawing around one of your pads, and then match it up. Then you'll know.

I wouldn't blame you if you did doubt me, it does seem a little bit random
