Hi just bought a baja and it has disks on the front. It has 4 stud hub with a adaptor to make it from 4 stud to 5 stud wheels. Is this legal? I am in QLD
Thanks
Steve

Spoke to COR and they said it is part of the disk brake conversion so it is all good

Of course, you now have the paperwork to prove it to your insurance company...?

Legal and insurable are very different things.
This is what I went through:
I was told initially that wheel stud adaptors are legally OK to run in QLD. While the QLD DMT agree that a vehicle with properly engineered and fitted adaptors will generally pass a RWC, it seems that insurance companies take a dimmer view, based on the letter of the law which states:
"The vehicles wheels or rims must be DIRECTLY attached to the hubs, without the use of adaptors or spacers"
I'm insured through Shannons and they said definitely NO.
A POSSE AD ESSE.
I live in my own little world, but it's okay, they know me here.
