Got the wheels tonight.. I don't on a router nor do I know anyone who does.. I think a good cylinder hone will work.

ORIGINAL: tobinj
I used the router method on mine, just purchase a flush trim bit; from the back of the wheel set the depth for the bearing on the bit to meet the smooth line on the front of the wheel and moving counter clockwise (from the back of the wheel)remove the material until the router bearing touches the smooth part on the front of the wheel and that is the perfect amount of material you want removed no need for a gauge, I did all five wheels in about 30 minutes with a beer break. The bearing will ride the smooth part and give you a perfect circle.
I sure would like to see some pics of that process
