In summary yes different all made by different factories to slightly different designs
BUT all meant to mount on the same style and size of stub axle
so it doesn't matter what you get as long as you get a full set and consider the inner hub bearing size and PCD of the Hubs

Re: Underbonnet heat - Best Anything I missed ?
jelly in aluminium radiator
1) mixed blue and red coolant (mistake)
2) ethanol/fuel contamination of coolant/water mix (head gasket)
same scenario in breakers yard carburettors.... rain fuel and aluminium + a long time= jelly
