Rotor change with wheel studs?

Stevesmokeman · 02-02-2018, 12:34 PM

Hi everyone,

I just finished installing a wheel studs conversion kit, as I was sick of fighting to align the wheel perfectly and get a bolt in. Wheel spacers made this task very difficult.

Anyway, now I'm wondering if I'll be able to get the rotor off with these studs installed. It's very difficult to tell if the stud is seated into the rotor hat or just the hub beyond.

Anyone know?

The rotor is not threaded. The studs thread into the hub.

Thanks, so I'm guessing I'll have no issue changing the rotor.
