Well, so far I've manage to strip the heads on 2 of the 4 torx head bolts while trying to remove the wheel bearing hub. I plan on grinding the damaged bolt heads off to remove the old bearing assembly.
Since I didn't order any new OEM replacement torx head bolts, would it be ok to substitute socket head cap screw (allen) instead.
I believe cap screw are generally very strong.

Thanks all
