wide vs narrow conical vs flat wheels
« on: May 21, 2007, 10:02:40 PM »
personally i like flat wide wheels....the 56 spitfire grossos are pretty ideal but i like them usually a little shorter...like 53... what are your preferences? i feel like flat wheels feel more comfy..

skinny, white and 53 or 54. I've also learned that cheaper really is worse quality.

53mm x 29mm - Candle White - No Graphics ...

Cheaper is not always worse quality RAW !, it just means you eliminated the middle man.

damn, I didnt know i was worthy of italics. But I used to always buy the cheapest wheels(usually atm or bullet) at the shop and they would get flat spots in a few weeks, but then I bought some zeros cause they were my size and pretty cheap for a decent company and Ive had them for months.

34 years old. 50 mm spitfire.

I have no idea why I thought this, but I seriously thought you were 17.

Anyway, Spitfire 53's for me.  I tend to like them on the skinny side.

52-55 depending on what I am skating or my mood.
Bones STF or satoris have always treated me well.
Basically anything poured at creative seems to hold up well.
preferably the 101 formula.

I street skate with 60 mm wheels all the time, stereotyping is rad though, keep up the good work.
