Hi

Looking for a hub that suits the stubtech 50mm dropped axles.

Needs to have 5x98mm thru to 5x130mm bolt pattern, also accommodate larger brake caliper/rotor upgrades would be a bonus.

So you want a hub to accept a disc similar in design to a VT front disc, that's not a problem. Big diameter is also not a problem. But you need to choose what stud pattern you want and what wheels you want, as that will determine the centre bore needed.

Wheels are custom, made to order. yet to purchase them though.

VT is 5x120mm correct? and is most commonly used?

Hub won't care what brakes you put on it

Pick a stud pattern... and offset to suit your intended brakes

Wheel clearance is the issue depending on the offset of the disc you choose

Ford is more common, as it was in use for much longer. Commodore is 5x120mm.

I have a UPC Commodore stud pattern kit I fitted then didn't use. It fitted well but the wheels I have would not fit on due to the shape on the back of the wheel so I still have the same stud pattern but now have a Wilwood caliper and different Commodore disc.

Pic of hub attached, I could measure any bits you want to know and they are available from UPC or you could buy mine if you want to.

I did try the VT style rotor and it fitted but the the UPC kit comes with AU rotors drilled to Commodore stud pattern.

Also there are plenty of Commodore stud pattern adapter hubs available on eBay or from Holmart
