replacement hubs for AE86?

[jet111]

Because I am a dumb ass I sold all of my spare hubs without realising & I am now hub-less.

Since I'm upgrading struts and brakes I thought it may be a good idea to take this chance and upgrade hubs too.

I want to keep the original PCD 4 x 114.3

Is there room for improvement? What other cars share hubs that would be suitable replacements? Should I just get a replacement set of AE86 hubs & where can I find a new set (apart from Toyota).

Thanks

i don't believe there's much you can really upgrade in a hub without going to a larger stub axle from a different car, i have some t-18 ones here that i'm sure are the same as they share same bearings etc, pm me if you'd like them

only upgrade ive seen is some ridiculously expensive Japanese made billet suckers...still run the same bearings, just lighter...

Hmm this makes sense. Sounds like a good idea Chris but I don't want to change my stub axels because I just spent a fair bit on some Greddy coilovers and they come with them.

Wow, some people will do anything to save weight.

I may have to go to Toyota buy new ones *shudders at the thought of Toyota's pricing*

well i have normal diam t-18 ones here that should work, hit me up by pm if you'd like them

t18 ones are longer. and dont fit on the shorter ae86 stubaxels

ask pat (fantapants) happened to him i think

I am probably wrong here but I think the t18 hubs suit the larger axle.

Billet hubs are cool, I wonder if it's worth me making some
