    The harder you have to score the tile surface to get a crisp score line then the bigger the wheel.. so nice fine glazed ceramics then a 6mm and if they are something like a riven porcelain then a 10mm and hard to score quarries then the 18mm etc... then if you have to press on a bit you will not damage the wheel spindle..
