Britpart DOES have high quality products! For sure!

Why do i know? We are manufacturing them Wink

That much about our products, but there are many other manufacturers delivering goods to BP. And yess, a lot of parts are OE or OEM in blue boxes.

But please be honest: What do you expect from a balljoint for 3.95 if the OE part is 39.95??? It is the !!!CHEAP!!!!! mentality of some customers making some manufacturers think there is a market demand for cheap scrap.

And remember: There is always a CHOICE of quality and is your own decision to buy cheap scrap or not to buy it. If the demand breaks down the market will do the rest....

The issue is not the quality of a piece, the issue is knowing the quality of a piece. If I buy crap, it's my own fault. If I buy, not knowing it's crap, that's a different matter.

Before you can choose, you should be able to know the choises you have. I personally stay away from BritPart simple because I have no idea what I'm buying.

PS "expensive" is not the same as "quality" either!

I always buy from known quality vendors, unless it's a non-important item (like plastic rear light guards). E.g. I bought my bumper from D44 and my HD steering rods from QT. I bought the plastic light guards from ebay.

I.o.w. Wheels I would not buy from BritPart myself... ever.

We have just had our delivery of these Sawtooth Style Alloy Wheels and they are spot on for roundness as I expected. Thumbs Up Tried to compare them to a Fifty pence piece but they look nothing like it. Rolling with laughter

The finish on the face is just as good as the genuine wheel. Thumbs Up Andy.

Excellent news. Maybe BP have turned over a new leaf?

What load rating do they have?
Is there any document available that proves it?

i though ZU were britpart, they have excellent rep!


Old thread I know but as I am looking at buying a set of Sawtooth (in Graphite) this got my attention.

Have currently got ZU's and they are not made by Britpart.
Like many other items they are now marketed by them but they weren't when I bought mine. I bought them direct the same week they were launched and yes, they are excellent having a really outstanding (and hardwearing) finish and are easy to balance.

Will be for sale sometime soon c/w 265/75x16 BFG AT's (x 5), will post when available. ONE LIFE, GET IT!
