Is It Okay For My Hub To Have A Smaller Pilot Than The Pilot Hole On My Wheel
Published 12/30/2016
Question:
My existing hubs have pilot shoulder of 3 5/8inch . The wheels you have for sale have larger pilot holes although the bolt pattern is correct for my hubs. Therefore all the load will be taken by the studs and not the pilot hole. Will this be okey dokey? Thanks

Yes, that will be okay. Trailers are designed to have the lug nuts carry the load as opposed to the hub bore.
