[Yacine]

so the mailsman is going to deliver my fucking awesome 8.25 board next week and im looking for a new set of trucks as well.
i'll go with indys this time but i don't know what size, 139 lows or 149s ? id like to try some lows tho

If you wanna skate lows, why did you even make this thread?

[Yacine]

i said that i'd like to try lows but i don't know if it's a good idea on an 8.25

You know that width and height aren't the same thing, right?

[Yacine]

yes i do, but pardon my english, i'm a foreign guy

If it were me, I would definitely go with 149s. I feel weird with anything below that. As far as lows and highs, I don't have a clue

Yea, go with the 149's. Ive seen people skate 8" with 149's.

8.25 on 139 lows is fine. If you wanna get the lows, get the lows. Especially if you're getting stage 11's which I assume, the forged ones are 53mm in height now so even then theyre alot higher than lows. If you get the regular ones, its like standing on the top of empire state building vs the ground below it.


If you ride loose trucks or like to turn at all, dont get the lows.

thanks fellas, i think i'm gonna get the 149s because of the wheelbite fear and more stability.
(going to sue independent for not making a 145 truck between low and standard  )
