Educate me on re-packable bearings... what are these "caps" on the ends?
Driver's side says, "Made in Thailand" and has a small hole in the center. I can spin it with my hand but it's not threaded. I can see a little rubber/grease around the edge. Is this normal?
Passenger side says "Made in Chine" has no hole in the center and I cannot move it with my hand. Thanks, Brian

^ Thanks... they were all repacked in August when Penske added the car to their promotional fleet and painted it so I'm good for a bit. The cars were driven 2 months max and then returned to Panoz.
