Steve,

I had a similar (the same?) problem - mine was self induced.  I installed 
the studs in the new hubs using a hydraulic press.  I didn't support the 
back side of the hub well enough or I used too much force installing the 
studs.  So the material around the studs deformed creating some high spots 
on the side the rotor mounts to.  So the rotor couldn't sit flat and had a 
bunch of runout.  I had to push the studs out, file the surfaces flat, 
re-install the studs and the rotor.  The manual says up to 0.002" lateral 
runout allowed.


Are you going to be at Eurofest?
