Well, the adapters are machined perfectly, and to very close tolerences. My experience is that the lug nut studs aren't mounted very straight, even on new rebuilt drums, so the adapters won't go on. To me, the right way to make them fit is to go through a long process marking and bumping the studs from the sides with a lead hammer, re-marking, re-hammering, re-marking, re-hammering, etc., etc. The wrong way is to ream the adapter holes oversize.
With normal bolt on wheels this problem doesn't occur because the lug nuts are cone shaped on the bottom and pull the wheels on to the hubs centered just right.
