Bearmach nuts!

All my nuts are fine [yes matron!] but, the locking nuts are ghastly so they're going into the skip.
Was going to simply order 4 nuts from Bearmach, but, on fleabay I got a complete set of 20 nuts [boxed Bearmach still sealed] at a very reasonable price.
My question is, are Bearmach nuts better that OE LR, similar quality or hopefully not, worse?
I can just change the 4 locking one's & have 16 spare or change the lot. A 22mm socket fits all the original nuts so one assumes no swelling.
The reason I chose Bearmach was through recommendation from learned friends on here. 2012 Orkney Grey Westminster 4.4TDV8 with Ivory interior.........nice!

They are not better quality, but they certainly won't be any worse

We use either Bearmach or Britpart wheel nuts in our workshop. Whatever is needed to make up an order to free delivery Laughing

Bearmach are fine. Nuts are a consumable item. Personally I'd order 20 and put them all on at the same time Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"
2025MY Defender D350 90 in Silicon Silver on coils
1974 Series 3 Lightweight = "Millie"
Many, many other Landies over the years

I had some Brit part ones and they were indistinguishable from the LR ones. I would hazard a guess that the bearmach ones will be the same.

Buy the set, swap them all, bin the old ones then repeat in a couple of years.....

Even if they seem good now chances are when you come to want to take a wheel off at some random point they will be swollen and you will be stuffed at the side of the road with only a LR chocolate jack and wheel brace for help.

They are useless whatever the make. if you want decent ones then there are solid nuts out there without the caps on which are much better but are £££ There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
