Do Thunder 147s perform much differently than the wider, taller sizes. I have read that the 147s tend to feel a bit tighter than the wider sizes. I’m not necessarily looking for a tighter feeling truck but just curious how much different they are. I know that the standard 147 is lower than the wider sizes but being on forged 148 I don’t see the height being much different. Are these a completely different truck from what I’m used to or basically the same?
147s, and down, are different. They are shorter, and the difference is noticeable.
Ishod, Wade, Shane, Nyjah, etc, all on the 147s.
Imo the max wheel size is a 52.
They have less kp clearance than the larger sizes.
I have forged 148s, and they are significantly different, to me.
I am a fan. The pop is great. Maybe my favorite truck? I get bummed on the small wheels, and they are not as ‘fun’ cruising around as an ace or something like that, but yeah, kind of their own thing. Closest truck imo would be a 5.2 venture lo
