I'm outfitting my grinder with the green teeth setup, I previously had pocket style rayco's. My question is: My wheel has offset bolt holes. There's 3 different hole patters. One out towards the edge of the wheel, middle, and inwards. Do the teeth for plunging, ie straits and reverse, go to the outer most holes? Does it matter as long as the pattern is consistent like you would normally put the teeth in, meaning opposites on the wheel?
My concern is how close the straits are to the wheel. The round tooth actually contacts the side of the wheel when set at the inner bolt holes.
 
Just run all straights. That's what I have to do.

That seems counter productive to me. I set my strait and reverse pockets on the outer most holes 180* from each other. There's only 2 pair with that configuration, one strait one reverse in the same pocket. Tested her out and she ground smooth and fast with no vibration. I will see how the wear pattern looks after some use.

I'm not saying that your suggestion is counter productive, I just assume if the recommended set up is using lefts, rights, reverse, and straits then there must be some science behind it.
