    Right, because they made the stud pattern on VEs exactly the same as they did with VKs and VLs, makes sense.

    You go to a rim place or a machining place, they'll machine the middle of the rim so it'll fit your hub as it wont slip on, they gotta cut away a little bit to fit pre-ve.

    Cost me $40 p/wheel
