Wheel nuts and studs

[w3526602]

Hi,

If you are drilling threaded hubs to accept splined studs, be very careful that you hold the drill at 90* to the face of the hub, else the studs stick out at an angle ... or more awkwardly ,,, at different angles ... which can it difficult to fit the wheel over the larger/smaller/strange PCD

If you are concerned about safety, consider fitting complete S3  hubs ... I assume they are interchangeable

A few years ago, a complete S3 hub with bearings and studs retailed at something over £110. I'm guessing there is a lesser demand for second hand S3 hubs, seeing as their studs should have a lower rate of attrition.
