    well alot of guys buy for looks they like the gold plate on them. like said by Ireland child . step down on the bolts use the 8 were your would need a 5 grade bolt . on a cheap bolts? But they should not be any. i was talking about that same thing to a friend that day before i posted this .i felt this should be adressed for the guy that buys a bolt for a grade 8 bolt? and has all the good intensions for using it just for that a grade 8 bolt . so for that person this is a wake up call. i posted this for them . i did email TSC and told them that i did have many good photos of the bolt.i hope they will do some thing??? as for to go over the grade (past a grade 8) i am not a big fan of that if it is not at the right stretch you can have failure to. i have seen things move from the fasteners not QT to stretch.i look at the marking on the top of the bolts and do know abit on who is the maker but i guess this can be counterfeited to ?
