kyle ..i think your right i have a hoffco intercepter same hub caps .but all 3 of my hurricanes the wheels are steel wheels with aluminum 3 bolt hubs 3/4 " taper bearings on front and rears are steel wheels and aluminum hubs with i think 28 spline hubs for enclosed axle ..im almost 100% sure the intercepter doesnt have enclosed axle in rear ...ill look tomorrow ..only thing i no for a fact is my hurricanes have steel wheels aluminum hubs ..i have never had the wheels of the intercepter i have no idea whats under the full moon hub caps ..

They are off something else. No brg's & just aluminum won't hold up except for a push kart or something. The pictures also don't look like rear wheels at their is no key way.
