Question:

I need a recommendation for some good wheels for my skateboard?

I need a suggestion for some good skateboard wheels. I have an element skateboard with core trucks, not sure what kind of bearings. Its pretty new and i skate on a lot of asphalt and concrete and was wondering if anyone knew some good skateboard wheels that will make the ride a little faster and smoother and where i can buy them.

Answer:

you should get the round ones, the square ones slow you down!!
I have used Spitfires and Rictas forever. Both are good on all terrain and can take alot of abuse. I would say go with Ricta, i have had a pair since last summer and i have skated like crazy since then. They have hardly worn down, go fast and are smooth.
If you want wheels to do tricks on get Hubbas. If you want wheels to cruise around on get Kryptonics. If you didnt know trick wheels are wheels that are smaller and harder which makes performing technical tricks easier. However, these wheels are not very smooth. If you are just going to be riding around you should get cruiser wheels which are usually large, soft, and sometimes jelly. These wheels provide a smooth fast ride on all surfaces. Good Luck and Keep Skating!
