Steering Hubs
In our Steering Hubs range you’ll find safe mounting for common 6×70 and 6×74 mm patterns, plus options to tailor reach and ergonomics. For fastest swaps, add a Quick Release Steering Hubs; to fine-tune reach, use Steering Wheel Spacers. Looking for model-specific fitment? Start with Toyota Steering Wheel Hubs and explore more below.
Brief summary + key benefits
Steering hubs create a rigid, concentric interface between the column and wheel. Matching the column spline/taper to the wheel’s bolt pattern (6×70/6×74 mm) ensures precise steering feel and reliable torque transfer. For swift driver changes, choose Quick Release Steering Hubs; to fine-tune ergonomics by millimetres, add Steering Wheel Spacers.
Technical Basics
The hub converts the column’s taper/spline into a flat interface with a defined PCD. Correct concentricity, hardware quality and star-pattern torqueing are key to a rattle-free setup. Adapters can bridge different patterns but add stack height.

Selection Criteria
Identify the column interface (taper/spline) first, then match the wheel PCD (6×70/6×74). Choose a stack height that preserves a relaxed elbow angle, clear gauges and stalk access. For multi-driver cars, quick releases save seconds; for fine reach tuning, spacers add millimetres without changing wheel diameter. For competition, verify FIA-labelled adapters, thickness and hardware length.
When cross-shopping brands, consult the marque pages above (e.g., Mercedes, Porsche, Volkswagen) to avoid pattern or spline mismatches and to check notes on airbag resistors and horn ring routing.
Installation & Maintenance
Disconnect the battery (airbag safety), mark the centre, clean mating faces and tighten bolts in a star sequence to the specified torque (Nm). Keep tapers/splines dry. After 100–200 km, perform a re-torque and visual check for loosening or rubbing. With a quick release, account for added thickness and confirm horn contact and stalk clearances at full lock.
For detailed, model-specific tips use the marque links above—from BMW and Ford to Subaru and Volvo—and always re-torque after the first drives.
FAQ
Q: 6×70 vs 6×74—how do I match?
A: The wheel and hub must share the same PCD; otherwise use an adapter and account for extra stack height.
Q: Do I need longer hardware with a spacer?
A: Yes—aim for at least 1–1.5× bolt diameter of thread engagement after adding spacers or a quick release.
Q: Does a spacer reduce stiffness?
A: Quality aluminium spacers with correct torque remain rigid; play usually comes from poor hardware or uneven tightening.
Q: Are quick releases road-legal?
A: Regulations vary by country; check local rules and consider airbag/warning-light implications for road use.
Q: Why re-torque after installation?
A: Initial bedding changes load distribution; a re-torque restores even clamping and prevents loosening.
