Here is a thought...

My front wheel hub started chewing up wheel nuts in one of the holes. It cross-threads on the 2nd thread of the thicker part of the bolt nearer the head.

So is this cross-threading happening in the hub? With the thickness of the brake disk and the wheel, that thicker part of the bolt doesnt reach far enough to mate with the hub.

are there threads in the alloy holes? there isnt in the brake disk, thats just smooth holes.

Dont want to rip out my hub and put a new one in and find out that wasnt the problem.

Any help would be great!

Cheers
