Default Pin-Drive Questions
Not having ever seen one off the car, I was wondering just how pin-drive knock-off hubs work.

1. Are both the weight of the car and the drive born by the pins or does the tower in the middle play some part in locating the wheel (more than just clamping it to the hub). Put another way, is there anything more than a clearance fit between the tower and the wheel?

2. Is the wheel completely alloy or are there any steel sleeves such as where the pins locate?

Thanks Guys
