Default Knockoffs

Autokrafters:

The Halibrand knockoffs (spinners) on my Compomotive (original to car) wheels are beat to sh!t.
I tried putting on a Trigo knockoff and if was TOTALLY different. The threads fit but the angle that the Compomotive wheels want are sharper than the Trigo. The contact on the 'knockoff to wheel' is minimal and it only spun on 2 full turns with lots of threads left over.
Any of you go through this?
