Rear Passenger Side Wheel Bearing & Hub Assembly Compatible

In this review the Rear Passenger Side Wheel Bearing & Hub Assembly is evaluated as a direct-fit replacement for 2012-2019 Fiat 500 models. Its single biggest selling point is ready-to-install preassembly that mirrors original fit and function, which makes it appealing to DIYers and independent shops needing a straightforward swap. The review examines fitment, noise and durability reports, and installation ease to help readers decide whether this replacement hub assembly suits their needs.

Key Features

• Direct fit pre-assembled unit: Saves time during installation by arriving assembled to match original mounting points and tolerances for a precise fit.
• Broad compatibility: Designed for 2012-19 Fiat 500 rear passenger side fitment and listed with multiple reference numbers to aid parts matching.
• Gen 2 ball bearing design: Offers smooth rotation under load to help restore wheel performance and reduce vibration.
• Clear wheel and brake pilot dimensions: Provides predictable alignment with a 58 mm wheel pilot diameter and a 59 mm brake pilot diameter to match hub geometry.
• Bolt pattern and flange sizing: The 98 mm bolt circle diameter and 117 mm flange diameter match OE-style mounting for secure wheel attachment.

Who It's For

This assembly is best for owners of 2012-2019 Fiat 500s who need a like-for-like replacement and prefer to avoid machining or modification; it is especially useful for competent DIY mechanics and independent repair shops seeking a ready-to-install hub. The clear spec list and multiple reference numbers make it straightforward to verify compatibility before purchase.

Customers who need an ABS sensor included or wheel studs installed should look elsewhere, since this unit does not include an anti-lock brake sensor or wheel studs. If long-term durability beyond typical replacement intervals is the top priority, shoppers concerned about mixed longevity reports may want to compare other premium OE or factory options.
