I have never in my life seen classic fulls. Wider riding surface but same rounded sides? I love the classics, just wish they were a bit wider in the surface area, so these sound dope.
The classic full is actually the original Bighead shape, so a slightly wider, but rounded wheel, which they still make, if you needed a comparison, but I find the normal classics in slightly bigger sizes wear down perfectly to be a "classic full" shape anyway.
Re Spitfire size chart, the funny thing is those size charts never got it right, as they have the Classics wider than the Classic Full wheels from 56 up.
It is my preferred wheel and although they only came out for a shorter run in the natural colour blue F4 swirl graphic, they have been coming out for the pro one off versions of the Lance Mountain and the Grosso wheels, of which I have lots.
54 x 34 is right, with 19 riding surface
56 x 35.5 with 20 riding surface
58 x 37 with 22 riding surface
Call me weird or whatever, but I used to buy these in sets of four, so I could have the full set of normal wheels and people I know could get the full set of coloured wheels, which was almost a complete one off, so they were happy and I was happy to have the rest.
