Don't rely on the bolts - they may not be straight, which will really ruin your day when your car shakes itself to pieces or busts a bearing.

How about machining a circular spacer with a hole through the middle to accept a bolt, and use a nut to join it to the hub axle bolt (I know what I'm going on about!)

Umm.... how did you get the others on???
