Update...completed the job using Centric hubs, and it went fine. Getting the old hubs out was, as some have said, not exactly a walk in the park especially considering the five CNY winters they've been through. Didn't have a Hub Buster or other special tool, but there was enough room available to get some swing with a big ol' hammer from the back side to get'em knocked out. New hubs, rotors, and pads installed and feeling great.
Bad news... Hankook Ventus tires showed an insane amount of treadwear and scalloping on the inner surfaces...only got about 15k miles out of them. No track stuff..just spirited (but responsible, meaning some hard cornering but no drifting or burnouts) daily driving. Typical? Alignment advised after new hub installation?
