C5 Conversion Hub
Apposed to using the stock rotor turned down into a hub and longer wheel studs is it possible to use C5 hubs on the spindle? Anybody try it? Seems like an easier solution if possible..

if it was easier, we would be doing it.
you HAVE to use a turned down rotor/hub and longer studs.
besides, 3rd gens have superior hubs (bearings) than the 4th gens and c5's do.
4th gen and c5 hubs bolt to the spindle, they are a non serviceable part, and are in no way compatible with a 3rd gen spindle.

Re: C5 Conversion Hub
sorry, no easy way out on this one. grab a set of used ones from the junkyard so you can have the work done without being without the car.
