I've got four different sizes (rubber) that I use, but not to the extent most of you stock removalist do. They have held up well and will probably last me a lifetime, but like I said not a "heavy" user. I forge close enough to finish to not need a whole lot of profiling, so most of my work on these is handle finish-up.
I think Jim is spot on with the pressure issues - belts are a lot cheaper than wheels.
