What speeds were you testing at? We were testing primarily at 6000 rpm and didn't notice any separation from the aluminum or excessive expansion.

Granted, we did used solid 4" conveyor wheels [I know them as fairline (Fairlane?) Wheels, but maybe Allen can reply with their proper name] to shoot in 2016, and those loved to expand so maybe we're just used to shooter wheel expansion.
