JCon 2.6 Dragons- additional hubs?
 
Aside from JConcepts themselves, doesn’t anyone know where I can source a set of the optional hubs from?

I bought a set of these wheels used and they only came with one set of hubs, however I could do with the others that come with the wheels that are supplied when new.

I have already contacted JConcepts directly to no avail, they’ve not picked up either of my emails.

Thanks from the UK 🤙🏼

Are SLW hubs the same bolt pattern?

Ah, that’s silly. Would be ideal since people likely have them and it’s readily available.

I drilled my Jconcepts wheels to use Vanquish Products 2.2 Dirty Harry wheels hubs. The DH are a different hub then the SLW, but essentially use the same pattern.

I was able to use a carbon fiber SLW spacer on the outside of the wheel to strengthen the assembly;

To be honest I hadn’t thought of adapting something to work, gives me something else to look into.

Thanks for the inspiration, love your attention to detail!
