One set was designed, tested by seller, works well of duty material with good properties.

The other is a copy. Cheers

Thanks, just noted that neither one of these seems to work with my original Boost ally wheels. Sad

“These are to be used with Steel wheels or ZU alloys only.”

Guess then it only make sense to fit genuine ones?

They will work with Boosts if you use cap head drive flange bolts, as they provide the necessary clearance. I'm using spacers now, which avoids the problem, but ran my Boosts beforehand without issue.

Whist the wheel is a Wolf steel, this picture shows the benefit of cap head bolts (these are the Paddocks HD flanges):

Ashcroft work with boosts. Either rotate all dm bolt heads so flat of hex head doesnt stick out or use screw caps Cheers
