Can someone enlighten me on what some of the factory guys are doing with their Jaco front wheels to let the wheel nut (front) sit inside of the bearing race? I noticed a few SpeedMerchant guys doing it, like Mike Dumas, for one. Without the wheel on, they have a large stack of shims to compensate, too.

I have long had a problem with the front axle nuts catching boards and other cars, and it would help me a lot to be able to pull them under the surface of the wheel face.

Are they thinner bearings, or something else?
