Sorry didn't answer this did I. It was planned after seeing expensive sidecar outfits using car type rims and tyres on the back of the bikes, only me being a tight git thought I'd do it myself. I first looked at spoking a wider smaller diameter rim to my hub, that then led to boring out the middle of a 2CV or Beetle 15" wheel and bolting it onto my hub by drilling some of the spoke holes out bigger. 550/500 rear hubs without cracks being rare as hens gold teeth I decided against ruining a perfectly good rear wheel, thats when the comstar rear hub occured to me, the rest you know ;)
