I have been farming and now have the mats to make my Spellfire Gloves.
I am currently using Handwraps of Flowing Thought
Now looking at the items it seems the handwraps are the better choice, but I'm still wondering if the set bonus might be worth taking the stat hit.
Any opinions on this is appreciated.

Are you hit capped? If not, keep your current gloves. If you can keep hit capped with the Spellfire, then go for the Spellfire.

you can makeup for the lack of hit by re-gemming if necessary, the damage increase should be fairly large

Multiply your intellect by (.07). Then take the spellfire. Enchant for hit if you have to.
I guess one of the things I am unclear on regarding this; is the Spellfire Gloves state "Up to 7% and not "By 7%".
From the verbiage, I am understanding that it is not a constant 7%. (Hopefully I am wrong)
If it's not, is it determined per cast by the dreaded RNG?
Or are there other modifiers I am not aware of.

cast time dependant. full value for spells with 3.5 base cast time, proportionately less for shorter spells, even less for aoe (around 43% for single-target instants). but this applies to all spell damage increasing effects.
edit: if you can survive and have enough mana for the fights you're involved in, get spellfire. more damage.

Thanks for explaining it so well Turicus.
Guess I will be making them tonight when I get home.

If you don't already have the set, and you have the badges, why not go with http://www.wowhead.com/?item=34938?
Just slightly less spell damage, but more crit and alot more stam/intel.
I broke my spellfire set awhile ago when I picked up the belt of blasting, so when the badge vendor hit getting the gloves and http://www.wowhead.com/?item=34936 seemed like a no brainer. Slightly less damage for a ton of crit and stats.
That's if you have the badges to spend.
