    What would be better?

    Got a 5 stud set up on my 180sx but the previous owner fitted hubcentric spacers and cut down the original studs, now what do you all think would be better, if i removed the hubs and fitted new studs or just find a set of hubs with studs in and swap them over?

    Pretty easy to just change the studs without removing the hub

    Can you do that? someone told me that you have to take the hubs off to change the studs lol.

    I changed all the studs front and rear on my S14 without removing the hubs, can't see it being any different on a 180sx...
