I Have Never Replaced My Hubs or Got Any Good Feedback on the Different Brands Available. I Would Say if You Got a Lot Of Good Miles out of the OEM Parts Take That into Consideration. As An FYI, This Is Likely the Brunt of Available Options Out There. Just Need To Plug in 2 or 4 Wheel ABS. To The Mix! Looks Like The Car is Well Equipped & Likely 4w Antilock!

I have not replaced mine, but if and when I do, I will probably use the FRPP version with the extended studs -- for road track use

for a street car I think OEM would be fine and is always a safe bet ... or maybe consider one of the lower cost options from Rock Auto or elsewhere

If the OEM hubs for your vehicle are still being manufactured? I would also recommend sticking with OEM, otherwise, if not, I would follow Bert's recommendation with the FRPP version.

beware about the FRPP version: I'm pretty sure the extended high-strength studs require "open" lug nuts where the stud sticks through, not the "acorn" style where the lug nut covers the stud ... not the best look for a street car ... other than the studs, I think the FRPP hubs are the same as OEM, though I am not sure

thanks for the feedback, I've got close to 200,000 miles on her and the right front is talking to me
I have given it some serious abuse through the years, love cornering her

You Are Welcome!

If You Got 200K on the Originals Perhaps Another Set Would Be The Way to Go!
