Default Mintex Redbox
Has anyone had any problems with the Mintex Redbox pads on stock rotors?

My mechanic says they are creating hardened spots on the rotors which is causing shuddering on braking. Could this be?

Default Mintex Redboxs are garbage. I have them and they are loud as hell, plus have much worse bite
The only redeeming quality is that they dont produce hardly any dust.
