Hastings have made rings forever and a day. They are top quality and I have used them many many times. No need to worry at all.

Differences between Hasting VS Goetze..?

Iv heard about Goetze being a "softer" ring, and it's made by federal mogul too..
I used both many times and both didn't give any problems.. Maybe a more experienced person can comment on the differences

When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on :driving:

That discussion can get very technical.
