I need to convert these wheels from XD back to Shimano 10/11 speed MTB to accept an existing groupset. I believe that they are OEM branded DT hubs, but am unsure of the exact type.
Any suggestions? I assume I'd need not just a freehub but also the internal spacer and external spacer too.

Doesn't look like a DT to me but if the hubs were made by DT they'll have DT serial number on the hub shell.
This video shows where these codes tend to appear and what they look like

It **might** be this

I can’t quite read the fh number in the picture but formula hubs use the fh lettering on them but they’re rubbish at documentation so I’m not sure that helps you find out the shimano version.

Good spot, that!
Not a FH565A, but a FH565 (an earlier revision of the same thing, I guess?) Does that mean a Formula hub? The next question will be what is the equivalent Shimano part to go along with this...?
Looking at this:
...the ptrc-1c takes a FH-565 for XD, and a FH-502 for Shimano, so I suspect that's my answer.
