I Didn't buy boost 9r wheels,although my plus are boost specific. My 9r wheels have a spacer in the front with a rotor spacer. And my back wheel has a end cap on and rotor spacer . The back was dished and now it's plug & play as they have the same rotors on. No messing no fuss just swap wheel over.

 

You can buy the spacers for the back as well if there is no end cap available.

 

 

This is what you need :

Wolf tooth make adapters for i9 hub's front & back.

 

Specialized also make these adapters ( this is the one I use )

As for not as stiff with the end caps.... I can't feel the difference as I have a set off sun ringle boost wheels as well fir back up ,and I cannot feel the difference in proper boost hub's and fitting end caps despite what journos say.

 

If you want any more info on spacers etc just ask. Have been researching & checking options on this for months .

Proper set of 29ers will transform the way it rides. Much better investment than a cheap hardtail.
