There are a few old posts on Mintex squeals
The remedy appeared to be repeatd fairly agressive braking from high speed (after warming them up with some slow stops)to bed them in
Search was off so couldn't find exact thread. Have a hunt
I have 1155 with 4 pots and never really had any squeals after following the "bedding in process"
I would recomend them cheap and seem to last and more importantly stop well in all conditions
