    hub question

    Hi all,
    I've been told that hubs (black on pics) are not good to use with genuine 4 spoke RS2000 alloys.
    Because it don't have the square end like the other one.
    The wheel is not centered, and at some point the stud will broke.

    What do you think ?

    If they are genuine RS alloys you will be using tube nuts that are - in my case at least - a fairly snug fit through the wheel - I have to use 10mm spacers on the back due to disc conversion so the 'spigot' on the hub virtually doesn't exist!

    Those are Group 1 fitment with inserts in RS alloys.
    'Tube nuts' are I think, better, more like group4 setup.
