Don't expect these to stay looking good

Price is ok, general quality seems to be reasonably ok. However, even being careful with a good fitting, top of the line spinner wrench and they look like crapo after one install. I had to go get some black fingernail polish to touch them up and will probably throw them away after the next change.Here is some free engineering from a mechanical engineer not even on your payroll DP. There is a process called black oxide that will actually wear without scuffing nearly as bad because it penetrates the steel a little. Better yet, there is a process called black nitride that is even more durable and penetrates the steel even deeper. Any kind of paint is never going to work well.I am so sick and tired of paying a little extra for something you think is a bit higher quality than the cheap junk you get from China and still getting inferior products.

Pros
  • Fantastic!
Cons
  • Can be difficult to find replacements if lost or damaged
