Just picked up these spikes for my FJ Dryjoy Pros. Seems like the prongs on each spike are not the same, is there a way I should be putting these spikes on? A certain prong facing one way vs. another?
Thanks!

I'd think long prong out....but good luck doing so with the fast twist type spikes....
A few spike don't seem to like settling in that way....something to do with the threads and where the spike catches/clicks.

If you find a way, let me know....I always have 2 spikes that are impossible to align the long part of the spike outwards...

I'm wondering about this too. I've been using Stingers for years, ever since I stocked up(I've still got at least 4 boxes left) at the end of 2004 when Target had them on clearence for $1.00 per box. But all the ones I had were the Fast Twist system, and the Nike's I'm wearing now need Q-Loc. So I went and got some today and they've tweaked the design. The older models had all 3 yellow prongs pointing out, but the newer ones have one that is completely vertical. The spikes I took out of my shoes were also Stingers, and they were the Nike factory installed ones from this year, and they didn't have the vertical spike.

I wonder why they changed the design

Should be long prong out. I wear adidas Tour 360s and they're all aligned outward.

my tour360 don't seem to do that very well....must've got 3 dud pairs I guess!
