I can't say for sure about any MV, Rick, but I do know that the rear wheel nuts on some (or all) of the MVs are bigger than the stock 996 nuts.

The Ducati Corse magnesium swingarm has a larger axle than the stock 748/916/996/998 axle and so it matches the MV axle.

I don't think you'll be able to make a MV wheel fit your 996 unless you either swap your eccentric to the Corse type (not sure if that's possible) or buy a proper Corse swingarm with the large axle in place.

Good luck!

Nice idea, but i think they used a specially large axle on front aswell.
