You some kind of English teacher or what!!!!
What's the point of clogging up a serious help thread with mindless junk on how words should be spelt.
BTW you wouldn't happen to be Norris out of Corrie would you by any chance

I think it's an affectation.

Has this guys problem been answered yet or are we still at the Raymond (I get my pants from K-Mart) Babbit stage?

Not sure yet Clive. I'm going to thrash the Dart arounda bit more and see. I'd like to hear from anyone else who has fitted aftermarket alloys to their front drums and if they have had any problems.
Must make sure that SteveB gets the MMA Forum 'Pedant of the year' award at the Nats

Hang on in there Miles, I am sure you will get what you seek in the end my young Padawan. Remember, the Force is strong on this board.

I'd have put money on it being the wheel nuts too long, they need to be at least 1/8" shorter than the thickness of the wheel centre to allow all 3 pieces to be squashed together when you tighten them. You will sometimes see a small amount of unthreaded stud sticking through the drum as well, if there is, then your nuts need to be shorter still or else they'll bottom on that before the wheel is fully tight.
