You are right.
Let me vent a little here and just say that making custom hubs is probably something teams should think long and hard about before deciding to go down that path. There are so many really great wheel/hub options to choose from. Unless you are getting a lot of bang for the buck (broadly construed not actual $s), I just don't think this is the path for 95% of teams out there.
This from a guy who has made robots with many many custom hubs and custom wheels and custom tracks and custom FILL IN THE BLANK. But I'm older and wiser these days. There are so many places to innovate in FIRST. Spend your creativity bucks in areas where it's going to get you significant advantages. For the vast majority of teams that isn't in making custom hubs for 8" wheels.
