Default 12mm hex options

So, I got a really nice set of GripFab wheels that I got here, but the hubs will not work with the Axial hex, the two step centering stub is too long and the hub is not cut for the little step. I found that Axial has a hex with no stub, AX30427, and I should have no more problems but I was wondering, what else is out there, like in the clamp style.

Also if any one knows of a hub that is compatible with the GripFab wheels that has that second step cut, please let me know.

You could always just shave down the steps on your existing hubs.

That is what I was going to do, I have three extra sets, but then I found the ones without the centering hub (AX30427) for less than $7. I always though that all 12mm hex were the same ID until I when to go put one, off my Slash, and found that it had a different center, that's when I started to wonder what other hexes are out there that are Axial specific.

When I started to clamp it down I notice that only half of hex was going to clamp the axle stub because the stub steps down and I figured that it would eventually brake loose.
