As Alan said, the rollers themselves are fairly small, and any excess electrons will be quite anxious to jump off the the next available particle party boat. You can easily drop the static charge in your roller by connecting them to the frame, and connecting the frame to the ground (if your wheels dont do a good enough job, drop some long zip ties to the floor) This will induce a charge in the frame material and give the static in the rollers a straight path to the ground.
