These are for the front pair.

DAmmit Tony!!!! Send me a pair.....STAT!

group buy time? :D

Okay, I don't get it.
What is the advantage to running these things now?

Lighter weight?

I don't see (even if they were lighter) the weight making ANY difference thats in any way measuarable of "feelable"

Only benefit I see is that you get the enitre hub, no need to f**k around pressing out the old bearings, possible chipping the hub, bla bla bla.

These are just, pop off the old, pop on the new and be done.

Plus you get fresh wheel studs.

New hubs look nice-- and nice car!

Do they have them for the rear?

have you ever heard the performance gain difference between unsprung mass and sprung mass?

Do you know this for a fact?
The stock ones have "voids" in them.
The Super Now hubs look solid...unless it's cast hollow?

Don't be posting replies unless you can back up your claims.

I'd like to know if the foutunate one living in Japan would be willing to send some of us the front rotor kit. I'm trying to do a 5 lug conversion, and I need some slick hubs. I'd really like these!

I'm with Ted on this one.. What's the point of installing these?

Is that the only performance gain?? 1 sec off lap time, big whoop... IF you want faster lap times, then learn how to drive. You can have the most upgraded JDM piece of crap car but still have shitty lap times if you can't drive

In order to replace wheel bearings on a stock hub, you compromise the integrity of the hub by drilling out the race that the bearing sits in. Thats the only way to replace the bearings. These are PERFECT for those of us with bad wheel bearings. If they really are much lighter... bonus.

One front hub from mazda is close to 460 dollars. Where as the set of hubs from this company is 360. That's a great deal.

Well, running a lighter rim then what you're running now will give a "feelable" difference for sure. But bear in mind that most of the mass of the wheel is 8-9" from center.

The outer edge of the hub is approx. 2" from center....see where Im going with this??

Not to mention when people talk about lighter rims they're talking about saving a pound or half a pound. I highly doubt that these hubs are any more than a few ounces lighter (if indeed they are lighter) then stock in which case there would be NO measurable performance gain.

The only gain, as I already mentioned as well as others have, is the simplicity of them. No mucking around when you change the bearings, just drop on these pre loaded, ready to go (probably packed with grease already) hubs. Simple and easy. Thats the only "gain".

Wow, where are all the bitches that were arguing about lighter weight?


-Ted

I agree, for what it's worth. :icon_tup:

How do you read this shite?......why is there no language conversion on this damned computer
