I have read this whole thing and cant find where anybody say what scale hardware will work for the rings? I did notice that it's been said I'll need 138 pcs. to get the job done:shock: Well I just want a solid answer before buying that many of the wrong screws. If I missed it being stated, what post is it and i'll go back."thumbsup" Just need to know if it is M3 or 4-40?

I used 1-64 locked up rc hardware with a dab of locktite, they use m2 hardware, but the tool will not clear the beadlock rings to tighten them all the way down....thats why I used the 1-64.
Slw hubs are a direct fit, at least on mine they are.

I went to High school with a Family of Croddocks there was a older sister Robin, she was around my sisters age in their 50's , then the brother John, he was a year or 2 older than me, then Joan she as in my Class

I know there a lot of people with the same last name

Its a small world, and you never know

Due have relatives that live or lived in the Bay Area of San Francisco

I grew up in San Jose its South of SF about 60 miles

Just curious if you had family from Cali

Hmmm that's odd.... Craddock is a fairly uncommon name... I do not have any family outside of my that I am aware of

Yeah how are you using 1-64 on a M2 thread?

M2 screw diameter is .078", on the 1-64 screw diameter is .073". M2 thread pitch is .4mm and it's very close to the 1-64 TPI (Threads Per Inch).

Same can be said for M2.5 (.094" dia.) and 2-56 (.086" dia.), metric thread pitch and SAE TPI are nearly identical.

You have to be careful with the amount of torque when using SAE screws in the metric threaded holes to avoid stripping, but they will work in light duty and/or cosmetic applications.
 
It happens HERE all the time. I realize on some things there are only so many ways to skin a goat but there are several parts that are photocopies of the original sans cast in logo sold here and at least 2 companies selling a unique part that another vendor designed and built originally and still sells. It is what it is really and the world keeps on spinning.

It's laughable how much you defend these wheels. They are a direct clone of a small US company. 99% of the people on here aren't arguing the fact that way to much **** is already imported from China. They're arguing the fact that you people are buying and defending something that is morally wrong and if done in the US would be illegal.

What's equally messed up is the fact that this thread is even allowed on here given the fact that paying vendors sell THE REAL version of these wheels.
 
If the paying vendor sold their product at a reasonable price then the chinese copy wouldn't sell.

I might buy a few sets of VP hubs if they made them for metric hardware.
