Just going to swap the damper in my Pikes and I might as well do the seals at the same time... But, choice overload! What seals should I get?

It seems like Rockshox switched to a lower friction design, but it also seems like it's impossible to tell which one you're going to get. I've used SKF in my 36s and they seem really good. There's still Racing Bros and maybe PUSH options too. Any recommendations?

SKF are good, affordable and seem more readily available. I don't know if it's true, but been told that other than the colour, they're the same as the RS low friction.

RockShox low friction SKF seals are 00.4318.045.004 £23 (wiper seals, foam rings, crush washers and travel o ring)

Not enduro seals, they have a habit of chewing through the stanchions.
