Do any of you guys know what kind of hubs these are? I think they are hyperglides but I don't know, I don't really know the difference. They're on a new set of Alex A-Class R 2.0. I wanted to get a Shimano 10 speed cassette to put on them. But I don't know which to purchase, maybe they're all the same. Which will fit?

It's Shimano. Take off the pie-plate.

All Shimano 10-speed cassettes will fit on any 8/9/10-speed Shimano compatible freehub. There is a 1 mm thick spacer that goes behind a 10-speed cassette if used on anything but a specific 10-speed freehub. It comes with the cassette so don't overlook it.
