They are Simmons.
Whilst they will clear the larger brakes, this vehicle is 2.7.
Offset is slightly greater than normal.

1. my sad looking climate control knobs which had become sticky and looked horrible, so ordered new from China took a while but worth the wait ...

2. fitted into position, they look a million times better and cleaner to use now, very happy and no tools needed to swap them out.

For those who want to do the same for free, you can simply remove them and rub off the goo of the old knobs and underneath is pristine plastic like above. I did this with mine.

Yes used goo remover on mine, came up like new.

I originally got the blame, she commented that I spilt sauce on them

My climate control knobs have recently become sticky too. What causes this ? To remove them do you just pull them ? What's the best stuff to clean them with ? Thanks a lot.

They just pull off,then use goo remover from hardware.

You can use isopropyl alcohol on them too. Takes a couple of goes but comes up good as new. Google sticky rubber and you will find Youtube clips about it.

Youi online claim was so easy. I'll book it in today.

Picked up my new fridge on Sunday morning. Second hand trailblaza, Aussie made out of Qld.

Cranking battery SSB ss88ti going back on warranty today. I always test my batteries every service. They are both getting lower then they should. Hvt 50d aswell.

Me and the kids give the car a good wash. I'm glad I waxed it properly. Takes less then an hour. Looks new

Hmmm, had an 88ti that let me down early as well, disappointing to hear.
