which one is better for a beginner and also what is the difference in 4 wheels and 5 wheels and which skates better.
yea cold air induction will give you more hp
YES! It will give you alittle bit of hp and tq, but even better it will improve gas millage a bit too
The 5 wheels are better. The 80mm is for beginners
Wow, Will's answer is great! I just wanted to add that you can always buy skates with frames that can take 100mm wheels, and use 80mm wheels to start with. In most cases, if you buy skates that have frames that fit 80mm wheels, you can't switch 'up' to larger wheels. The larger the wheels, the higher you are off the ground, which means, it can feel unstable. Once you get better, and you want to go fast, you can get a skate with longer frames, which in essence gives you stability (5x80mm or 90mm wheels), but can be hard to maneuver. Hope that helps a little more! Happy rolling! (^_^)
Four-wheeled skates are better for inline hockey, whereas, five-wheelers are used more for racing. Types of wheels: 48-60 mm for aggressive skating. 68-72 mm for artistic inline skating. 72-80 mm for general recreational skating. 59-80 mm for roller hockey skating and slalom. 80-110 mm for speed skating. In general the bigger the wheel, the faster the skate. However, large wheels take more energy to start rolling. Smaller wheels allow faster acceleration, maneuverability, and a lower center of gravity. Wheel hardness is measured on the A scale and usually ranges between 78A-93A (higher numbers are harder). Harder wheels are faster and more durable, but soft wheels may have better grip (grip is determined by many factors, and wheel manufacture is arguably more important than durometer) and less affected by road bumps. Wheel profiles and thicknesses again vary by application. Elliptic profiles minimise friction for a faster ride; more rounded profiles have better grip and are more stable. For a beginner, I would say it wouldn't really matter; you don't want to have to buy another pair of skates, so just get whatever you think would be better, the faster or slower wheels and skates. But if you are really a beginner, stick with the 80mm.
