Track hubs?
 
I have gotten to the point where I need to replace all of the wheel studs. Two have broken so far and I suspect the others are not far behind, so it’s time for a set of good studs all around.

The car has 55K miles on it and is really only used for the track. My thought is that if I am going to pull the hubs off to replace the studs, I may as well replace the hubs too. Are there heavy duty / “track spec” hubs, or should I just go OEM? What do you think of third party hubs, like duralast or moog?

You dont need to pull the front to replace studs

Rear you remove the wheel bearing

ARP extended studs work great

Ok, fair enough, you don’t have to, but I guess what I meant was I may as well just pull the hubs and replace them after what will be by then 60k very hard miles. My question is, is there anything better than OEM hubs out there?

No.

Just browse CL for wreaked cars being parted out and pick up a spare if you are worried. I had my right front go at a little before 60k, I keep a spare.
