Karl, make sure you check out the "aluminum hub" section. Want to drop a few more pounds of each side of your D44? Bling blang! The brake bracket design looks a little familiar too. The D60 setup is ****in' sexxxxaaaaaaay!

Wonder if those aluminum hubs are good for street/trail use?

Look a little closer, its a 1 piece 8 lug wheel. Looks similar to my American Racing wheels that I added the MRW weld on bead locks to. Took a 12" wide wheel and turned it into a 14" wide!



Paul, don't even think about running those aluminum hubs/rotors on the street. That single rotor design is made for short use stopping, like in mud racing or sand drags. I can see it now, you running them things down the highway at 60 or so mph, jab the breaks to slow down and melt a rotor in the process.

i think they are 15x16 and they are 2 piece wheels. they have weld center caps with them but they are really loose fitting so i don't think they are original. also they only have 2 3/4 inch back spacing. really odd ball wheel have looked everywhere to see who made or makes them no real luck. thanks for all the help.

Yep, they do an aluminum hub/rotor kit. I looked into them after I saw the setup down in SC. Too pricey for me, so I went with the SC Special.

Jeremy,
what are you doing with the truck? Specs?

I cant think of a good reason to keep 1 spare for race use and like Ive already said...DONT DRIVE THESE ON THE STREET.


Karl,
SC FAB FTMFW! Paul would know all about this stuff IF he were present at time of conception...instead he was hoping his presence didnt cause conception. Luckily he aimed for your headrest.

Ok so other than the fact that Dubz would go all sad panda for awhile, what would be the downside to this? It would make for damn good tv.
