I never noticed these studs until I cleaned the hubs up.
The phone camera distorted the angle so there is noting wrong with that. they are all 90 degrees

Vettekr 500 or someone seems to be posting a link to a **** site, or a virus link. Might be an accident, but I also saw this link on the C6 site. Not cute, not funny.

The studs are different lengths. The short ones seem to be threaded too long, they go down I to far into the hub
