If they are the same wheels auborn carries, they are junk.  Two I had were not machined properly and didn't fit the mandrel.

At $99 a piece and shipping you would think they would make sure they were right.   

Which ones did you end up going with?  I need the 12mm ones so I dont have to use a adapter on stihl USG.

They did take them back, so it may be worth a try.
 The local Husky dealer rotates his wheel out every year so I buy them.  He gets them out of MN somewhere at 219.

Last year I bought a Diamond Wheel brand CBN Borazon wheel, 3/16" width for my Oregon 511A for $99. It has worked very well for me. No problems and it runs very smooth. I noticed that the price has now gone up to $105 for my size. Delivery was fast and it came well packaged with a white aluminum oxide cleaning stone.

They have sizes for the most of the present day popular grinders.

Best wheels on the market here:
http://www.chainsaw-sharpening.com/

We are servicing chainsaws and with one wheel from them we managed to sharpen more than 1800 pcs of chainsaws. Cannot imagine better working wheels.

Well paying 10 bucks for shipping and waiting 2 weeks only for good product, does not sound like a very bad deal for me.  They are shipping worldwide.

Friend up north uses 5 franzen and has 2-3 more of them he cant use till new wiring and new shop built.

But he stated yesterday on CRG FB he gets 800-1200 chains sharpened per CBN wheel.  Lot depends on what chain size he is doing most of for that.

He said this is who he orders from.

Just saving that info
