Yeah, thats the problem. I stripped the threads on my old phil due to not enough lockring threads engageable. It makes me hesitant, because I just dropped another 200 bucks to get my wheel rebuilt with a new phil hub. I think I'm just going to put the EAI ones up for sale on the bay and buy a phil or two in the sizes I want.
oh and Tim, I weigh 220, so this could be more of an issue of a guy my size than someone smaller. not sure how big ya are but that might have somethign to do with me running into problems and other people not.
