Hi,
I have a question that may seem obvious but i have to ask as the place where i want to purchase my rims is giving me some hassles!
What takes the various loads to the wheel. The wheel studs or the centre portion of the hub. I understand that on certain cars the centre section of the rim is an interferance fit onto the hub so in those cases it would be the hub but i believe on the roadster that the studs take the load. Any comments would be appreciated.
Andy.

On my mags both front and rear locate to the wheel studs.
When the original steel rims were installed , only the fronts located to to the hub.
If concerned, use a ring to make up the difference beween the hub and mag center.
