Penguinsfanatic 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 I was just wondering what wheels would live up to mass amounts of wear and tare on a smooth concrete surface....which wheels would have the best durability and life?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kukakid 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 In general the harder the wheel, the longer it will hold up. For smooth concrete I would just get a hard "indoor" wheel, something with a rating of 78a or higher. Of course you could go to an outdoor wheel too, depending on how smooth your concrete surface is, but you may not have as much grip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Penguinsfanatic 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 I'm not to worried about grip because I am a really good skater not to be cocky or anything I'm just lookin for something that doesn't wear easily and can withstand a lot of skating before i need to change them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have one purpose, and thats to last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could have a car with the most beefed up engine in the world, but if you have crappy wheels your tires are just going to spin. Grip matters, to everyone. I haven't tried the world cups, but judging by rr's other wheels they've gotta be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
