Perhaps a reducer bushing would be needed to adapt the center hole size. Precise centering wouldn't be a big deal since you'd be dressing the wheel to profile in-place inherently centering it. I suspect it would be cheap enough to be worthwhile even if you still used a correction table to get things exactly perfect. Mechanical precision is generally better than electronic compansation since issues such as axis acceleration can come into play when trying to correct for mechanical issues.

Hard part would be holding the grinding wheel in the spindle. The spindle is a built-in saw mandrel, and the saw blade fits just snugly over the male insert portion of the mandrel.
