spidertrax makes a unit bearing. TTMotorsports is trying to use peasant parts to use some cheap wheels fancy wheels.

theres a set of BTRs the algorithm keeps serving me that tempt me to do the same thing

TTMotorsports what did solid say about blank hubs? i want to progress on a project i have going but dont want to commit to a wheel pattern, so blank hubs would awesome.

Solid axle has no blank hubs all are pre drilled. So it's a weld unused holes and face the hubs on my big lathe.
 
Branik has dimension on their hats. And their rotors are just .375 A36 steel. Little time on the computer and sendcutsend.com can cut them for $83.06ea vs $145ea

Thanks. I actually have some stock 8 lug hubs i'm planning on drilling to the 5/8" studs and welding up factory holes because why not.

You won't be able to.
Look at the back side of factory hubs.
 
I'll drill the pattern then use my end mill to spot face the back to make it flat for head of the wheel stud to sit against.
 
Soild sells both a factory style Dana 60 hub and a 8 lug hub that is flat on the back side.

We buy the solid 8 on 6 1/2” drive hubs, use any two opposing holes for the 6 on 6 1/2 and have our machinist drill the 4 new holes. There is no overlap, and no need to weld the unused holes. We use spidertrax rotor hats with both 8 on 6 1/2 and 6 on 6 1/2 pattern. The drive hubs on both our race cars have both 6 and 8 lug patterns, doesn’t affect anything
