Polyurethane wheels with hardnesses ranging from 78A to 86A Longboard Wheel PU wheel

Wheel diameter is typically specified in millimeters (mm). The majority of skateboard wheels range in diameter from 48mm to 75mm. The diameter of the wheels influences the sliding and starting speeds. Small diameter wheels will move slower, but start faster, whereas big diameter wheels will have the reverse effect.

1. The sliding speed of 48-53mm wheels is sluggish, but the beginning speed is rapid. It is perfect for street skaters.

2. The 54-59mm wheels are ideal for skiers who enjoy acrobatic moves but must also brush the pavement. They are also ideal for novices.

3. Wheels larger than 60mm; huge wheels are commonly found on Old School type boards and long boards. The large wheel can slide quicker and go over uneven terrain with ease, but the beginning speed is modest.

The breadth of the floor contact surface of the wheel is also crucial. The larger the contact surface, the more weight is distributed to the broader region, resulting in easier deceleration of the wheels. As a result, many wheels feature rounded edges to lower the breadth of the contact surface, allowing the wheels to spin and slide more freely.

The narrower the contact area, the simpler it is for the wheel to slide sideways, making it unsuitable for beginners. The contact surface is quite wide, and while executing prop movements like the 5050 on the pole, the wheel that is closest to the width of the wheel itself will be locked more securely.
