It may be wiser to change the hubs to a 4 bolt configuration.
Electrolitic corrosion may be a problem on splined hubs without proper
maintainance. On the other hand if cleaned and cupaslip is applied
regularly there should not be a problem. It's a matter of dicipline in
maintainance.
Minilites are still available new, however they are aluminium instead of
high magnesium alloy like in the old days.
