Anyone fitted these pads?

I'd assume they are an improvement on standard stopping power but I want to avoid fitting something that squeals.

If anyone has any others they recommend - let me know!!

(I've got an E39 M5)

I'm running them on my Corrado. They seem very good and I rarely get squealing.

I do have a slight squeal when coming to a full stop but that seems to be from the rears and I was under the impression that I only have Mintex on the front.

I've just installed them (XTremes) on the front of my E36 3 series, and so far I'm impressed.

They feel like they have better bite than whatever was in mine before (BMW OEM I expect) and although I haven't 'properly' tried them out, they seem to be siginificantly powerful enough to yank me down from autobahn speeds.

thumbup so far for me - especially at £60 for a set of 'performance' pads.

They are fitted or being fitted on 3 stripped out M3 3.0L cars. So far they are pretty good and much cheaper than the Pagid Black C + Yellow combo. Will report back after the weekend.
