Will this work with 1/4" backer rod? Are the wheels "thin" enough?

Yes they are. If the 1/4" wheel doesn't fit, they also provide a 1/8" wheel for very narrow grooves.

Will this work for Frost King 3/8 inch backer rod?

Yes this tool works fine with 3/8" backer rod from any manufacturer. We sell backer rod by the box from 1/4" up to 6" diameters. Bob- TruSupply

Are there replacement wheels that I can order? We wore our wheel out and need more.
