These showed up on time, in a little plastic bag. Packaging was fine, there isn't much to be damaged here. I purchased these because while I still had some of the OEM shims, one of the previous owners of my car was kind enough to lose ~5 and replace them with a big washer. Due to this I was unable to get the proper tension on my generator belt.So, the review:They're okay. Functionally they work. That being said, they were a bit... bent? I don't think it happened in shipping, because about 50% of them were bent in different ways. Bent isn't quite the right word, maybe warped? Once I got them on and torqued down they flattened out and are fine, but they definitely aren't supposed to be that way. I guess you could look at it as a poor-man's lock washer. That aside, the inside diameter of these was absolutely spot on, to the point where I thought they didn't fit at first. They do fit, just absolutely perfectly. Part of this may be due to a bit of corrosion on my car though (Just 50 year old car problems).All in all, I'd purchase again, but I have a tough time justifying 5 stars. I'd give it maybe 4.5 if that was an option.

Worked well. My generator only had about 4 shims, so I needed a few of these when I replaced the belt. The rest are spares. 1969 Red Beetle - Autostick
