I would use them until they are smaller on one end then the other. That be said the last disk blade on the outside is smaller, as to not cut too deep and make a ridge.

I have an old drag disk that I have gone over 3 times and rebuild the blades many times some of the blades were 12" started with 16" best set I have ever used, old JD model no idea but easy to move light and cuts like it should no weight on top, nice and smooth finish.
