This is a stupid question, and I should have asked in more detail when I was at the mothership. For those converting to the 365 tires and wider rims, some front hubs have to have smaller diameter wheel studs. The expression newell uses to justify 2000 extra dollars is that the studs have to be machined.
Does anyone know exactly what they do? Do they press them out and turn them down? Do they have some threading die and do them still on the hub? This is a mystery to me.
I am wondering why the studs can't be pressed out of the hub just like you would do if one were broken, and replaced with the smaller one?
