A lot of people make the mistake of over-tightening their wheel nuts - the hubs are alloy and WILL be the weakest link.
When replacing the hubs, DON'T, whatever you do, get the Wildkart 90mm rear hubs - no matter how careful you are in not overtightening the twin hub retaining nuts, the hub will still crack. I've binned four of them an no longer buy them
