If you're already blowing out Bones Bushings, I wouldn't recommend another set. The cored design, whether plastic or metal, seems flawed if you're a heavy turner. Also keep in mind that Thunders or Indy's have a higher kingpin angle so that turning weight distribution is greater on the kingpin (and consequently, bushings). Just ride stock bushings.

Also, titanium bearings sound a little suspicious. Titanium (or stainless steel for that matter) can't achieve the hardness of hardened steel or ceramic bearings.

Same here.
I'm rocking the hard ones!
You know they say you wouldn't have to insert the spacers with them ? or whatever you call them ? but it won't hurt if the ring in the bushing starts to break.

Get the bushings. They feel amazing. There's a reason why 90 percent of the industry rides them, even if they can't get them for free. They should last you for a while unless you crank your shit down a lot.
Also, as soon as you fuck up a set, just email bones with a picture of your fucked bushings and they'll send you a couple free sets. There's no losing really.
