(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) So, I'm installing 100mm wheel studs on my front 911 hubs to use with spacers. Stock ones press out easily and I start to press in the 100mm ones. After I get 3 pressed in the spacer still slides on and fits. After installing the 4th it starts to bind just a bit. After pressing in the 5th stud, the spacer will no longer slide on . They don't press in exactly perpendicular to the hub face and the spacer will not slide over the studs now. For those who have actually done this what's the trick in getting these pressed in straight?
Thanks Paul |

I didn't have the luxury of having a 911 front end. I drilled my hubs on my drill press. I used a drift to install the 100mm studs and used my spacer to align them. Even the wheels are a little snug to the holes but not an issue. I have thousands of road miles on mine.
