    Those are hub pilot wheels.

    If the wheel nut comes with a washer you have hub pilot wheels.

    Definitely hub pilot. Stud pilot nuts are bigger and have a taper on the backside rather than a flange washer attached to the nut. On stud pilot duals, you should be able to see a square shaped lug on the end of the inner nut (inner nut looks like a hollow stud, takes a special square socket to remove them). Hub pilot just has a regular stud on it.

    hub for sure. budd drives would have a square head on what looks like the stud and a larger nut on the duals, steers would just be a larger nut with no washer. also would not have the studs that protrude into the center hole of the rim.
