I initially had a review in mind for just one but i figured it would be more helpful to have a thread for all.

First is the Weiler Wire Wheels:

Not sure if many of you have used them but i bought one online. The 4" variety. Unless I'm in a pinch, i'll never use one again. I got some use out of it but have gotten much more out of others. Plus they didn't do this.

I used one of those for about one minute. I don't like pain.
I do like the Dewalt wire wheels and have worn out a few. I've used them for many years. I can not remember them ever throwing wire.
I usually use the Harbor Freight cut off wheels. I've not noticed any difference in them compared to the ones I've bought at Lowe's or Home Depot.

I have had decent luck with the Harbor Freight cut-off wheels, grinding wheels and flap wheels, and the price helps.
