The ones in my original post are the ones I'm using and they torque up and work well.
I can attest to this.

The downside of them is the finish isn't super durable.

I'm just curious...
You members that order tires on line...why ? Is it because your local tire outlet can't/won't order them, or is the price something that you local can't meet/match ?
I've always looked on line for the lowest price, taken it to my local, Evers Tire, and they have always been able to match it, if not beat it.
Also, I have compared prices for install, $5 bucks for mount and high speed balance per tire, as opposed to bringing tires purchased elsewhere, usually around $15 per tire.
As an example we have a local Discount Tire outlet here in Waynesboro, Va., and after tire purchase, they charge $20 bucks per tire to mount/balance...my outlet is $5 bucks.

I ordered mine through tirebuyer.com because at the time @Discount Tire wasn't a sponsor here and they had a better price online. It was free shipping to your house or to a local tire shop which I chose. I'm limited here to shops who carry and sell Nitto tires so for me there wasn't a lot of options.

Dave, I think you would sell a lot more dampers if you would offer a jacket as pictured, rather than a "t-shirt"
Just imagine your damper logo plastered on a nice quality leather jacket, that would be free as an incentive. :like::clap:

In todays mail...
First recall notice for my 2021 having to do with seat belts, and a separate one for the rear seat headrest .
At least it's on their dime, not mine.

Got the recall stuff too. At least the packet does a pretty good job of explaining how to check if your seatbelt was assembled incorrectly. Mine are both fine, but it could be seriously dangerous if yours are incorrectly assembled and you need your seatbelt to save your life. What a crazily boneheaded manufacturing mistake.

Here's the video the recall notice has a link for.

The recall about the child restraints is still a little less clear. I really don't think the head restraint is the thing that will keep a car seat from being installed within the level range. The pics they show seem to indicate that the vertical seat back is the problem.

I use a booster seat and just removed the head rest to allow it to fit better.
