Question:

I need help with skateboard wheels?

I am trying to get some new wheels on my new skateboard. I‘m new to this, and I want wheels that will spin forever. My friends wheels spin forever when yo spin them with your hands. I want mine to be like that. I don‘t want longboard wheels. What would be a good Durometer and Wheel Size? Thanks in advance!

Answer:

Wheel size has nothing to do with it. The higher the Abec, the faster the bearing. Abec7's are good for skateboarding. And if you want them to last a while get some that are ceramic such as Bones ceramic bearings. Good luck
If you want wheels to spin for a very long time, you should do your research on bearings. The bearings make the wheel spin and if you get really good ones, your wheels will spin really nicely. You should also get lubricant for your bearings in case if it becomes a little sluggish. I know Bones Ceramic bearings are really expensive, but they are really good. A larger wheel size would be better, but i'm sorry to say that i don't know if the durometer effects the spin of the wheel. Good Luck :P
