How to mount WCP's 3" Colson Wheel?

We purchased WCP’s 3 inch colson wheel here and the live hubs for it, but didn’t realize it has a different bore than the rest of the wheels on the site and the live hub will not fit in it. How are we supposed to mount these wheels? Is there a better place to get the wheels?

I don’t have the wheels or a detail drawing handy, but could you open the bore to 1.1875" on a lathe, mill, or even drill press and use the live hubs you bought?

Vex’s 3" hex bore Colson wheels are out of stock. They do have 3.25" hex bore Versa wheels, but they’re an inch thick; possibly too wide for the rest of your design.

It looks like only the 4" x 2" wheels are out of stock. We are probably going to return the WCP wheels and get the Vex ones.

Ah - I was confused by the red asterisks that means a selection is required as opposed to the red asterisk that says something is out of stock.

@R.C Can you please update the site to remove the language saying there is a built in plastic hex hub. None of the available products contain an integrated hex hub and the live/dead axle hubs are not plastic. It seems like you copied this language from the VEX product page, where they do sell wheels with plastic hex hubs
