I just bought this '74 2.0, and started investigating things. I quickly discovered that the wheel hubs have studs, and they are screwed in, and not pressed in. Previous owner was using 911 lugs on these.
Is this common? Is it safe? Attached image(s)

I'd rather have screw in studs with nuts than the bolts myself.
The studs used on the billet hubs are BBS racing studs similar to the 14mm ones below. https://www.turnermotorsport.com/c-146-whee...-studs-and-nuts |
