What do you want to do with 'em?

if you want new school sized light as a feather alloy ones then Stodgys 'Peggy Mitchells' are super good.

14 or 10mm axles

I got the oven pride on mine as they were black but they came up a treat

Plastic and alloy pegs, lightweight but wear fast, for light use peg stalls at the park

4130 pegs heavier but last longer, grinds on ledges without wearing away in 5 mins

Alloy pegs with a 4130 sleeve, a compromise between the above, quite light and last well... i run em....

Hub guard recommended....

Best pegs IMO are the Federal Cromo ones - grind super fast, last forever and are still pretty light.

Alloy for stalls, etc.
Cromo for everything.
Plastic for parks where metal is banned.
