Thanks

These wheels and all the orders are keeping me on my toes! I am running a bit behind and making your set now. I expect to have them out later today.

Just weighed 12 aluminum 1/4" screws. You would lose 2-3g is all. Its also just not a great place to lose it.

What about drilling some holes perpendicular on the spacers? That would be much better.

If you do go with the 3 hub screws, do it close to your paycheck date

I was just curious if anyone else was? I don't think it would be a good idea if your 5lb + or if you have some crazy motors.

I have been running mine with only 3 spreaders and 3 hub screws in the rear for i while now and have had no problems. When i get the al hub screws i will run all 6 hub screw. I went to 3 spreaders in the front before the comp this weekend and it was fine. I will be happy when i get the inner carbon rings. Every once in a while the bead will start to pull out on the inside of the wheel because the inner delrin ring has quite a bit more flex than the outer Carbon ring. The outer bead never pulls out with the carbon face

I personally dont see an issue with the 3 spreaders other than maybe losing a bead. Its just the 3 hub bolts that concern me.

Which I will not be doing... It was just to get a rise out of ya Since I have seen you post more than once about using all 6. I am running aluminum hardware anyway so dropping 12 aluminum screws out would be negligible.

I look at it this way.... WHEN I break them I get to offer more support to one of the many great vendors here on RCC!

I don't think you will ever say no to cash regardless the circumstances.

I'll need a set of V cuts soon... and those super wheels... ohhh those super wheels!
