Here is my 2 cents on this from my experience. In dealing w/six pin wheel and pressure plates I have come across theses issues. Six pin wheels have different thicknesses (center thickness) per various manufacturers. This will result in the wheel being too thin between the plates and will not get a proper crush when tightened, leaving the wheel actually loose. It will gual (sp) the surfaces including the cone spacers. With this I will use a flat spacer plate between the hub & wheel or the pressure plate and the outside face of the wheel to fill which will allow it to be tightened correctly. The other issue is the manufacturers also do not all use the same tapper on the spacer hub & plate assembly, spacer cones & axel nuts. It is important to be sure the tapper of the axel nuts match the tapper of your pressure plate & cone spacers. The difference in the tapper angles will wear each other out not having a matching tapper angle. This will get you in trouble due to stuff working itself tight or loose, plus destroying the mating surfaces. It is also very important to not get dirt on the surfaces. Once they get chewed up it is not easy to save them, it is normally junk. Hope this may help
