Yes, I got new hubs, but not from them. I got those through my mechanic, Doug
Jackson at British Automotive, in Novato, CA. His price was lower and he did
the work. Good thing since it took umpteen thousands of pounds of pressure to
remove the thirty-year-old hubs. I believe his supplier is Moss, but I'm
really
not sure.
British Wire publishes a catalog and I seem to remember the price for their
hubs
was around $140, with a 10% discount if you bought the wheels from them too. If
you want to be sure, their number is (408) 479-4495. Hope that helps.
