    hey guys i was just taking off my beadlocks to paint the wheels. I chased the threads but the threads went when i tightned the two bolts. the whole is two big to even thread them in now. Yes, I did chase them with the m8-1.0, and the threads on the bolts are perfect with die i have that came with the chaser. I need recommendations on how to get the bolts in

    All the other ones went in perfect!

    If the threads of the wheels are shot/gone, maybe put some epoxy in the holes. Then drill them out to the proper size and retap the threads.

    I did buy some plastic metal from auto zone to even out some chips in the beadlock, may try that!
    Is a 7 mm drill bit good enough?
