Can I convert these wheels to fit my QR bike?

Also what's the difference between an X wheel and an M wheel?

DT 370 hubs according to the DT website so yes you can get QR end caps - but look at the prices

(if you drop the seller a line they may already be included in the box)

X is for xc so you'll get sand kicked in your face by all the cool kids, obvz

M wheels are wider at 30mm internal and X are 25mm internal rim width.

My Spline wheels came with all the adaptors included. That was from lbs though.

You can convert these wheels to 135. I used the adapters that came on another dt hub many moons ago. A 350, I believe.

that's for a front wheel rather than 135 rear. I'd be very surprised if that worked

they'll likely make several slightly different variants ("normal" vs xd freehub and 6-bolt vs centrelock rotor)

Think I might take the easy option of something from superstar.

I have a pair of those, from converting my 135mm QR hub to 148mm boost. Let me know if you want to buy them off me for less than that 😉

Too late but I'll give you a call if I've ordered the wrong ones!
