Fabrice,
Nice bit of work, i have also done most of my car in Solidworks, its an excellent program...
In regards to the stress stuff, pretty much all software does it but its an Addon that you need to pay for.. So personally never seen it on solidworks....
Nice Job
Ed

There was a drawing that Chris Gibbs posted that should give you some idea as to how you might be able to use the BMW front hubs
