      Ah, now that's where you're right. The hub was meant to take the shearing force brought on through every day abuse. But holding the wheel onto the mounting surface (or the clamping force) is where the lug nuts' job lies.

      I'm arguing semantics blah blah blah. Blame my hours of doing Machine Design homework and engineering classes in college. I'm hard-wired to see the failure in every mechanical thing based on shear strengths and forces.

      I just want to go home and do car shit and watching videos on youtube isn't helping.

                Yeah thats what I was getting at, anyone who uses the lugs to center the wheel AND hold it on the car is a ratard.

                      It's a fucking Volkswagen

                      You could have stopped at "VW" and I would have agreed.
