Stella 13 SW18000 and aftermarket spools

Howzit Mark,

I tried to put my '08 SOM 18000 spools on the new '13 18000 Stellas but had the same problem. The 16000 som spool fits no prob on the '13 14000 and I have caught fish with it working fine. There was no rubbing at all but I noticed before setting the drag it is kind of wobbly which got me nervous but everything seemed to work great on outings. I purchased a '13 yumeya 20k spool for the 18000 and it looks pretty awesome on the reel, love um.

Re. the 14K with the 16K spool, when you say wobbly, would you say it's not a proper fit? Looking at doing the same but I'm a bit unsure without testing it.
