JConcepts will tear inside if you over-tighten. DE wheels tend to pull them out even when it's tightened.
AE plastic, doesn't clamp so FT pins slide out too fast.
Proline, the worst of the bunch. The actual metal that hold the screw snaps off!
Thanks for the compliment! Remember that when you install the rear aluminum hex adapters on a B4 or SC10, remove the blue washer and all outer axle shims. Only run the axle cross pin, and then slide the adapter over the pin and against the bearing. If your cross-pins are bent or mangled from pliers, install new pins before installing and brand hex adapters.
