Screw larger than subwoofer mounting holes

The screws I have to mount the subwoofer into my box are a little larger than the holes. They still screw in a little. Is it okay to use them?

Good lord. What kind of gangster ass screws are you using?

I'll just go ahead and suggest the obvious...

Get smaller screws.

My guess is you didn't measure the mounting dia holes before buying the screws 1st?!

My suggestion: Spiked t-nuts and allen head bolts. Over time, you can remove and tighten those bolts all day long. Just don't over tighten them too much.

Shhhhhhhit, imho, if you don't want any stripping, bigger is better. But you'll never be able to use smaller screws again.
