To sum up this thread; F4 is the superior product. Everything else is subpar.
I guess you could look at it that way if you like your opinion spoon fed to you without trying things for yourself. I haven't skated Spitfire wheels wheels since 2005 and I'm doing just fine.
Autobahn for the last decade and when I run out of my AB reserves I will skate something else that's not Spitfire.
My post was mostly pointing out that the majority of the posters on this thread are stating that they prefer F4s over everything else.
From my perspective, I've skated a bunch of wheels in the last 5 years (oj, bones, autobanh, creative urethane) and F4 are the best IMO. Before that, I was riding mostly STF and hated my sets of F1 and SFW. So, I didn't always have a positive opinion on spitfire's products.
At the end of the day, you'll be fine skating with whatever wheels you have. I just bought a set of shop wheels, because I'm on a budget, and they're good. Nothing to complain. That being said, I'd rather skate a set of F4.
