Ive seen them fail a fair bit (assuming you mean the spring style and not a solid insert). We use them at work when the original threads pull out, (trainee engineer in the food industry) mainly on ali and stainless machinery at work. Once fitted you can pretty much garuntee in the near future we'll be called back because its pulled out. We use them as a quick fix/ bodge while a new parts put is put on order or its manufactured in house.
A solid insert ive not seen fail even when inserted into nylon on our press heads for cheese cake bases.

Genuinley not saying it to be a bitch about what your saying.. this is just my personal experience with the ones we have at work.
Would rather stick another 2nd hand hub.. can pick one up as cheap as a coil kit.
Like ive said ive just been lazy with it as ive never felt the nut and bolt has caused a safety issue. It will be done but when the hub is actually an issure.. like if the wheel bearing needs replacing or next time i need a ball joints (do balljoints often thanks to the lows).

Sorry if my dislike to helicoils is not to your taste but its my personal experience with them that dictates it
