I think I finally found my holy grail. Krux 8.5 with the new Ace bushings.
Ace absolutely nailed it with this bushing combo (86a bottom, 91a top). It's like whole new trucks, smoothest turn ever, soft but solid. Imagine Ace's but the last 20% of the turn got progressively harder. So still not a super sharp turn, but very little wheel bite and amazing feel. They were slightly taller than the stock bushings so I think that's playing a big part (I had to use the Ace washers or they lipped out). Highly recommended for Krux users.
