    there are no threads to worry about.
    Look up the chainset code, verify the bcd of both chainrings, order online from your favourite retailer.
    To be safe, visit Shimano Tech Docs, download the pdf for your cranks, the matching code for your rings will be there....
    Google is your friend.
