protos. by far. eagles are reallygood, but protos are better.

only problem i have with them is that they are a little too grippy sometimes. what ever happened to the "proto sliders"?

The old protos sucked because they were deffective.
but the new one that i got in the mail is sooo gooodd..
it wil most likely last me sooo long because ive been riding the wheels really hard in the past week and the wheel is still in perfect condition.
only bad thing about protos is that they are heavy, but you will eventually get used to it.
buying anything is really all about preference, and i prefer protos

I hate eagles one of mine ovalized in two days on the front

Protos are better they feel better when riding them, they dont ovalize easily, and about the colors, the new protos are white so you can just dye them the color you want

dehubbed 2 protos in really about a month of riding.

running 2 eagles that belonged to steven and jordan and they are both perfect and have been perfect for some time now

EDIT: and because i couldn't ride them due to weather til just before the first deadline, i couldn't send them back. i was told i was out of luck, so after i dehubbed them in threw them out. then a second deadline was announced (after i was "out of luck" and had thrown them away, i was told i would not be recieving a replacement pair. so i can't attest to the new ones

Eagles. Better urethane = a better wheel. For those of you who think that your wheel is ovalized, you're wrong. EagleSport makes their bearing slots the same size as the wheel, thus making installing bearings easier. Just because they fall out doesn't mean their ovalized. Also, if your wheel moves from side to side, even when it's fully tightened, it's not ovalized, it's your bearing spacer that's too long.
