Jellybean Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Got the car checked over today, and after the Dyna pack run, back in July 3rd my hub was loose (rear Drivers Side); it was also the same issue with Jamie on here; his rear bearing(Drivers Side) was gone a day or two after the power run Is this a common issue? With the Hub Dyno's and the drivers Side rear bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 It's a common problem with none stock offset, over wide rear rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 It's a common problem with none stock offset, over wide rear rims. But the Hubs are bolted to the Dyno Pack? and Jamie has standard body with what looks like a standard offset Darragh also had the issue and he is running OEM Wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I mean hub bearing wear is a common problem with none stock offset rear wheels. The hub dyno will put sod all bearing loads on a car compared to going around corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy442 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Because the cars are 15 years old and bearings dont last for ever. And whos to say there wasnt crazy rims fitted in the past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I must be one of the lucky ones as ive got silly wheels and my bearings are fine perhaps uk spec bearings are just a bit tougher My cars also been on a hub dyno twice with no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing quite a few stock wheeled cars need wheel bearings im amazed mine are fine and have done over 50k with 11.5" wide rears.
