Oval 96 mm BCD Chainrings for Shimano XT M8000 and SLX M7000

Compatibility These rings fit on the Shimano XT M8000, SLX M7000, Deore M6000, or FC MT5100 1x or 2x cranksets. Use only the stock Shimano XT M8000 or SLX M7000 chainring bolts These CAN be mounted to the XTR 9000 series cranks, but you will have to use the bolt caps that come with that crankset and you will need to file roughly 1mm off the threaded boss on each bolt cap (they are a little too long and don&';t allow the ring to be tightened down) Wolf Tooth&&';;s patented Drop-StopA(R) wide/narrow tooth profile for the ultimate chain retention and mud shedding ability If using a 9-speed drivetrain use a 10-speed chain (shifts and works well on a 9-speed drivetrain and fits the ring tighter for better chain retention). Provide a great chainline on most boost bikes. See this explanation for details. Drop-Stop A models will reduce the chainline (inward towards the frame) from the Shimano specified chainline for the crankset: 32T = -2mm Must use the stock chainring bolts. The Wolf Tooth chainring bolts are a different size. Ovality of 10% and timing of 112Adeg after TDC (top dead center) Maximum diameter is that of a chainring 2t bigger than the size you order so be sure there is adequate chainstay clearance. Recommendations If you plan to ride in very muddy conditions, we recommend a chainguide or chainkeeper in addition to a clutch-type rear derailleur. Without these precautions, you may experience chaindrops and/or chainsuck. Recommend the use of a clutch style rear derailleur for the best chain security.
