We used the same wheel (2717T55) and made a hub adapter: A round piece of 3/16" aluminum, drilled for the bolt pattern of the wheel hub, with a 1/2" hole broached for 1/8" key in the center. It is sandwiched between the two halves of the wheel hub (rim?). We modified a 1/2" - 3/8" coupler to fit the CIM motor and drive the wheel off 1/2" keyed shaft, bearings at each end.
