Style Sawtooths
A subject that I know has been done to death on this forum in one form or another but thought I would canvas opinion anyway.

It seems that the general concensus is that OEM Sawtooths are preferred over the 'Style' type (and would also be mine if money was no object)

If OEM are not an option due to price, what would be the preferred brand of choice that are closest to the real thing.

Thoughts?????

I bought mine from Flatdog HERE and have no complaints at all. Genuine centre caps that fit without any modding, thick spokes and finish is great.

No Idea if mine are the real thing or not?

No issues with them, easy to clean... Look as good as new.

I got advised to check on the back of the spokes - OEM will have LR stamped on them
Haven't checked yet

I ordered the same setup on Friday from Chris at 4x4tyres, arrived today and spot on. Cant fault the black wheel nuts either, very good quality. .
