If I gave one each of them to you I'm fairly certain you would not be able to tell the difference. In use, polyurethane will start to melt around 185F degrees. If you run them that hot, you'll have problems with the bearings (on both the rubber and poly wheels) also. Keep the temp down and these will work just fine and you'll save 1/3 of the cost of rubber wheels. NOTE: The precision fit of the small wheel holder attachment is very high. I've hand test fit each one of these custom made poly wheels into an attachment fixture. Expect these to be a very snug fit. If they just don't fit in your fixture, you may have to move one of the press fit bearings slightly (in or out) using a punch and hammer

The 2inch wheel came on time. The quality was good and it came as advertised. The problem I ran into was that it would not fit the small wheel holder I have on my 2x72 grinder. The distance between the inside of the bearings was too small and it would not drop in. I reached out to the manufacturer and they offered a refund. They suggested a different wheel holder but I didn't want to spend that much just to get a match in size. My solution was to slack grind the inside of both wheel bearings a little at a time until I got proper fit. Unorthodox but it worked. I didn't see any product information giving the inside distance between the wheels prior to ordering. If you are looking to buy I'd suggest contacting the seller and getting the measurement prior to ordering to save the trouble.
