| Vanquish SLW V3 on Bully Axles which hex hub size????
After some advise on anyone running the SLW V3 wheels on their Bully axles.........ordered in my first set of these wheels and while they look great are super light which is exactly what I wanted.....like a total idiot I didn't realise that I needed to order the hex hubs to I'm going to order these but any advise on what size to order? The site lists Axial and Burgs with a few different sizes given i'm having this shipped over to the UK I want to make sure that I order up the right ones for me. I am running standard Bully Axles with standard hubs, any advise on what you're running etc would be great Cheers Darren Item vp-slw-hex-hubs http://www.vanquishproducts.com/vp-slw-hex-hubs.html PS - have also emailed the sales team at VP just waiting to hear from them |

I run 725 in the front, 475 rear. I like my front wider than the rear. Axial width will be the bully width. With proline 2 stage foam and sedonas it puts me at about 10.5 front and 10 rear. |

Its actually only .25" difference, but you figure that is only on one side, so overall I'm .5" narrower in the rear. It helps cut the corners harder in turns. | |

Correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't the wheel width make a differnce, slw's come in 4 widths 1.35, 1, .70, .50 and each one has a differnt back space. I run 600 up front and 350 in the rear on .70's. Hope this helps

Thanks for the replies guys. Now the value of the metric makes sense i can figure out what i'd like to order There are different back spacing for each of the wheels, mine are the 1". The guys at VP sent me the link below to their hub chart so i could work it out e.g. axle width plus c x 2 but without knowing what the value of C was e.g. mm inches etc i couldn't get the total track width. Thanks for the inputs guys. The link for the hub chart is below Cheers Darren http://site.vanquishproducts.com/vp-...dimensions.pdf |

Know its long distance, and time is off, but calling is the best way, they are just a small shop, and it is prime comp season.

I ordered up 600 and 725 and ended up running the 600 as I preferred the rear a little narrower. Not that much in it across the axles width but preferred the 600s Cheers Darren |

it's also important to know when ordering that .7's usually run narrower hubs than the 1.0 wheels...it you run the 724's on the rear of the .7's it makes you pretty wide in the back and makes you wider than the DH on the widest hub. just a FYI

| If you run .7"s or 1"'s The face of the rim is the same for each offset. the only difference in the rims are they are wider going inwards toward the axel.
