1. You probably don't need the fins.
2. Shimano G02A unfinned resin pads are £8 at Merlin, £7.50 at CRC.
3. CRC has Clarks unfinned pads resin@£4, sintered@£6
4. The resin pads last plenty long enough considering they're cheaper.
5. Changing pads more often means contamination is less of an issue.

Cheers for this , I agree the fins are a bit pointless , do you know if the material in the G02a is the same as the J02a which is the resin equivalent ?

I doubt Shimano would bother developing another resin formula unless it replaced the previous formula. Those two pads are from the same era, so unlikely to be different resins.
