Some years ago I read that brad Roberts was building these hubs that would allow us 4 lug guys the chance to use vented rotors. Apparently for some reason they can't be found anywhere. I have invested $$$ in aftermarket wheels and want to stay with 4 lugs.
Does anyone here have any information about these hubs? Maybe drawings or something, so I can have a set machined. Thanks Zach |

I have a friend up here in Canuckistan named Lanner that can makes adapters for almost anything. If he had the drawing I bet he could pop these out pretty damn fast.
He does it mostly for the beetle crowd, a lot of Porsche 5-bolt conversions so he already has the tooling for the hubs http://vdubengineering.com/brake-parts-kits/ (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/vdubengineering.com-26-1416187860.1.jpg) |
