[QUOTE="canepari, post: 486178, member: 8294"] Ive done about 5 different sets of DIY locks with and without coning rings or spacers. I found that when I didn't use rings or spacers that they cone bad and really only clamp the very inside of bead. IMO with coning rings or spacers the lock rings sets flat against the whole bead and since the bolts are between the ring and the bead it gets clamped evenly. The TMI locks are by far the best I've used and cheap. I get my own hardware and use serrated nuts instead of poly lock nuts that way I don't have to use a wrench to hold the nut while tightening.
