    Sorry to rehash this but I noticed a difference on my hubs from the last couple of days. I noticed a bit of bumping and thought just to look at the hubs and saw this. I’m not sure what could be causing what looks like the hub not to be seating/moving like this because I had it serviced at Toyota 3 days ago and they re torqued the lugs to spec. Any thoughts? the first picture is my passenger front side hub and the second is the drivers front side.

    I know what you are talking about.
    It looks like there is a “gap” between the mating surfaces of the rotor and wheel.
    I’ve seen it. And I’ve also clocked the wheel on differently to try and “fix it”.
    I never did, depending on how you clocked the wheel, it might look “better”.
    But I never got the “gap to close”.

    Looks like there’s a gap, but there isn’t “further in closer to the hub”.
    It’s just machining tolerances.

    As long as the wheel is on the hub lip when you tighten the lugs, it’s good. :thumbsup:
