Nice nuts
Back in December 2014 I swapped all of my wheel nuts for new ones from Advanced Factors. The ones they supplied were, I believe, OEM. On Wednesday, I changed my wheels to put my off-road set on and found that three of them had swollen and the socket was tight. Not impressed - less than 18 months old!
Ordered some new ones from AF on Thursday, and they turned up today - Friday. These are not OEM. Far superior quality, the locating diameter looks like it has been properly turned instead of just ragged off (turners and millers will know what I mean) with a blunt tool and too high a feed rate. They have them been properly zinc passivated.
The brand name on the bag?
Bearmach!
Here is a picture of one of my nice nuts:
