Red Tom on here has some for sale but they're ninety quid or I think Dave Dixon can supply them machined ready to fit

Pics of the measurement in my thread. You can use cav or vectra. Vectra works better as v6 discs fit straight on.
Make sure the cut the radus in to the bottom for the bearing cause thats when they can break.

Or buy ready done.

Cheaper option to buy some vectra hubs and get them turned down to match the 4 stud ones I already got on there?

You got a pic of what u mean by turning the radius in?

Couple of these new do the job?

Would I be correct on thinking I've got bigger hubs machined down to fit the nova bearing on mine now? It's been nearly 10 years so I can't remember lol

Didn't hear anything back from red Tom. Going to buy some new hubs tomorrow. Any particular national motor factors cheap on these Ben? With regards to vectra hubs, are they the same on any 5 stud vectra b?
