Yup I know Kev, spent a good while doing material conformity, supplier quotations for machining, grinding to surface hardness/finish and then broaching tool with the company that produce alot of VW/Audis OE flanges, all UK based. To make any sort of sensible margin would mean a £150 RRP/unit. Was hoping to do them at £100-120 similar to Alberts pricing but the margins just too tight.

For me it would be to shed some
unsprung weight and to have new
0 mile hubs. All the hubs I have weigh
like 50 pounds a piece and are all old
as ****. I'd rather by these billet ones
then new factory parts.Comment
