Set up a 1/2 HP Baldor 7/6 inches grinder.

http://igor.chudov.com/tmp/baldor-grinder.jpg It is a military surplus grinder. I bought a 7" and 6" wheels for it. It works, it is very quiet and vibrates very little. The wheels have plastic insert to match the hub and seem to be a bit off center. How can I center them? Make bushings on a lathe - aluminum or brass are fine - and make sure they run true by themselves (I'd drill/ream the hole first, then put it on a mandrel between centers) and then remount the wheels and true them up with a dressing stone, diamond, or even a star wheel (Harold will kill me for mentioning it).
