Hello
I have a set of Mintex brake pads for my TR4. I also have a pair of very nicely rebuilt and painted calipers. Thing is that the pads will not do into the calipers. The old ones go in just fine but the new ones seem to be too wide. So I'm left with the option of either grinding down the pads to fit (doesn't sound like a good idea) or filing off some of the coating from my newly coated calipers. Any suggestions...?
Thanks for your help.
