Metal Master, Jurid or Mintex Brake Pads?

I just drive on the street. Don't want to eat rotors. And, of course, don't want noise or dust either. I searched and have been reading for hours. But I have not seen any comments about the Jurid pads.

After reading awhile... I think I will replace the flex hoses with the steel braided lines, unless that is just for track. seems to be about the same cost.

Caliper rebuild should be in order, too, because I don't know if/when it has been done before.

New Ate fluid and speed bleeders, too.

Anything else? And recommendations for pads please?

I would not recommend Mintex pads - I had those put on my front brakes and had serious squeeling problems until I replaced them with Textar.

If you find some...

There seem to be a shortage of brake pad, especially for the front one.

P.P. is out for SC (Mintex & Textar)

OTOH, I just put in Mintex all around and am very pleased. No squealing and brake "feel" is excellent when warm / hot.

I can't imagine there is much real difference between these three pads. All have been around for years and all are compounded for the street. You'll be happy with any of them.
Be careful to get DOT approved brake lines in stainless. The others are meant for racers who check them after every event. Urban myth? I'm not sure, but why fool around?
