Will the larger wheels make a difference? With the 6.5" buffs the speed will be about 4000 SFPM. With the 4.5" buffs that came in the kit the SFPM was about 2800. Also, what compound/buff should I go back to, to work out the "lines"? Thanks!

Try dropping back to black and examine it closely to see if the "lines" you're seeing are gone. Then work your way back up. The canton might not have much effect except for a final coloring with white or red rouge.
