Can we have pics of the damaged hub/bearing? Still sounds suspect to me...

right! i payed them for what i thought would fix it and now they added a $1000 worth of other stuff that was still wrong with the car. saying that the driver side needed it to and the rotors need to be worked and the studs replaced.

Dude they are just guessing at the problem and making you pay out the ***!! All because you took your car in there with longer studs, spacer and aftermarket rims.. Get your car outta there asap!

Did you have hubcentric spacers? Prob not because you had spacers on.. If you had removed the spacers/studs I bet you would have problem solved!!

Smart thinking but they tried that no avail... but then it rubs on suspension too. so i need the spacer to get the tire away from the shock and i need the studs so i can have the spacers.
i like what ur thinking but i already tried that.

Your prob is the offset you chose.. Sorry to say but you needed a diff offset and you need it now!

For now I would run the stockers.. Hopefully u still have em..
