Has any used DIYGrinder.gostorego.com for drive/contact wheels? Their site looks a little funky like it's not completely done. I'd like to know first if they are reputable and where they ship from. Thanks in advance.
 
I ordered a set a couple of weeks ago. Their website is a little wonky and wouldn't let me pay with PayPal. I found the guy on Ebay an messaged him there. We got the deal done but it took a couple of emails. I received the wheels within a few days and everything seems to be in order. I haven't spun them up yet but I don't think there should be any problems.
 
I know I am always cautious of a company trying to sell something when they do not even have their own domain name and are hosting it on a ecommerce site like that. Not saying they are a scam but I am a little paranoid with websites like that
 
I bought some of his wheels and a flat platen on eBay and it's all been just fine and shipped fast and cheap.
 
Looks good great prices. Only problem I see is plastic seals on bearings. When I was searching for bearings salesman said plastic seals wouldn't hold up to the rpm the 2" wheels are turning.
 
I have a set of wheels from them. They work fine. Be aware, the the wheels do not have an internal spacer to keep the smaller inner race from side loading. So if you do install it, make sure not to cinch the nuts to tightly. The wheel should spin freely as well as the outer race, while the inner race is immobile.

The plastic seals are fine as they are essentially impregnable. I'm wet grinding and its seem to work just fine.
