Default Brake Pads?

My brake pad sensor light came on the other day...(O)...so I guess it's time to get replacements. What are people going with and where's the best place to get them? I'll be using them on my B5 1.8 for daily driving with autoXing as well. Also, how long do I have before the pad is completely gone? tia

Default seems like most people are running Mintex.

would that be the best for my setup? I'm probably looking for the cheapest set of pads so I'm guessing they're probably the best bang for the buck.

Default Pagid Orange pads

run about $200+ but are excellent pads for the track. They can be used on the street but may squeel a little. I got mine from Anderson Motorsport in Wisconsin.
