I've used the metro disc/hubs etc and had no problems. The only things
I has to do was grind off the lugs on the drive flange so the wheels
would sit on and change the steering arms back to mini ones. I've
heard about problems with camber - but it's not a problem I had. If
anything it went a little bit negative (though I do have very low ride
height)

I bought KAD but in 8,4" version and are very pleased with them. My local
Miniparts dealer says that minisport's after a while become oval pistons and
have some times after a while none use that they "glue" (they become
fastened (I don't know the wright word actually)
