Question About Wheel Compatibility
So I'm relatively new to MTB riding. Not too savvy when comes to parts. I have a stock Specialized Rockhopper Pro 2018 and I'm currently looking to purchase some new wheels. I pieced a wheelset together on Bicycle Wheel Warehouse. I just need someone to confirm they are compatible with my bike.
If I'm correct the only thing that isn't compatible are my current brake rotors which are center lock. Right?
Sorry would have posted links to make it easier, but don't have that privilege yet.

It looks like your bike has QR dropouts, so the wheels will fit. You have selected a rear hub with an XD driver cassette body, which means you will have to use a SRAM XD cassette. Is that what you wanted?

Also would you know if the Shimano version would be compatible Shimano SLX 1x11 cassette? I'm planning on switching to 1x11 in the next couple of months.

I don't know anything about the Speed Tuned Super 6 hubs or who makes them, but the cassette will fit regardless of whether the cassette body is 10 or 11 speed. The SLX cassette is an MTB cassette and is designed to work on a 10 speed freehub body or an 11 speed freehub body with spacers.
