    Personally I am not a fan of machined down flanges, I have run them before but had less issues using cav inners and 22 spline shafts, its just that those are no good for hard use.

    Audi bearings, normal flanges is the way forward but isn't a cheap option

    If hub flanges are machined correctly they will last for ever. If they havent the bearing will cut thru them in weeks.

    Mine have been on over 6 years. Never had an issuse, and its still using the same bearings.


    But i do fancy doing down the Audi bearing route.
