Can't get my scooter dialed

I have a District v2-i, but I can't get it dialed! My back wheel wiggles a little and I have tightened the axle as much as I could. The front wheel wiggles a little bit too. I've also out a piece of rubber on my brake to dial it but it still wiggles a bit. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

If your axles are tightened all the way, then a new bolt isn't gonna change that. Your wheels are probably ovalized.

I've heard district axles are shitty? at least it was on the v2 decks. Try a new bolt. a real bolt. not an axle

It's not your back wheel, it's your brake wiggling back and forth. Search youtube for videos on how to make district brakes silent. I know there's some videos for it.

OH this is also a possibility. If your axles are Razor-style axles or anything cheap like that (I don't know what District axles are like), they probably won't tighten enough to stop all movement in your wheels. At least, they never did for me.

Do you think my wheels are wiggling because there ovalized?

it might be, but if your bearings are easy to get out they probably are.

If your wheels aren't ovalized pop one of the bearings out just enough so that when you squeeze the 2 inner spacers of both bearings your wheel spacer inside wiggles around. Don't know if that was confusing but it works 100% of the time. I'm a dialed freak so gotta get that sounding like a basketball :)
