How often do I rotate the Cush Drive Rubber Inserts in my BST wheels?

To maximize the lifespan of your BST Cush Drive Rubber Inserts and ensure consistent performance, we recommend rotating them 90 degrees (a quarter turn) periodically. This helps promote even wear and reduces the chance of premature failure.

The ideal rotation interval depends on your specific riding application:

• High-horsepower drag racing and aggressive road racing (with heavy downshifting) may require more frequent rotations.
• Street riding typically allows for longer intervals between inspections.

No matter your use, routine inspection is critical. Uneven wear can develop if the inserts are not rotated regularly, especially under high load. Neglecting inspection and maintenance can lead to serious damage to the wheel hub or carrier system.

KEY TIP: There’s no such thing as inspecting too often. Make it part of your regular maintenance checklist.
