You know, the cost difference on the ERA cars to upgrade to the six pin, one-piece hubs over that of the Trigo or Vintage five pin adapters is about a thousand bucks -- that's $250 a wheel. This thread was really one of the more "scary" break down threads; it easily could have turned out much, much worse (it's not like "
my car keeps overheating"). By any chance do the newer cars offer a six pin option? You know, we've seen more than a couple of threads in the last few years dealing with 5-pins cracking and after reading this thread a thousand bucks doesn't seem like much at all.
