This is a good product but I have had some problems with two wheels that disintegrated at different times Sportsmith did make good on one of the wheels but the other went past the Warranty

Comments about Wheel without Cover, Original Style, Precor:

[...] The old and new wheels are secured by one screw on each side of the axel. Thus, if they don't both loosen simultaneously, there's no way to get leverage to loosen the other screw. I had to drill a hole in the old axel and put a nail in it to get it off. If I ever have to replace the new one, I'll run into the same problem. The new wheels were very loud until I put some 3 in 1 oil between them. working pretty well now, but not quite the same resistance and a slight vibration. It'll work, but for the money I expected better.

Comments about Wheel without Cover, Original Style, Precor:

The website only shows one double wheel for around $50, so we ordered 2, thinking we were going to get the left and right (for $100). When they came, we got 4 double wheels. It is not clear that you get the left and right for $50. [...] Also, Sportsmith said these wheels would not work for my EFX546 V2 and they did work--and very well!
