hardness scale?

whats the scale on hardness of wheels?

is 74a hardest or like 92a hardest? i need to know cuz im shopping for wheels, and have no idea what a good hardness is. low profiles wear down to easy, so that hardness is out of the question

please help, thanks

the higher you go (90's are like plastic) the stronger it is.

the higher you go (90's are like plastic) the stronger it is.

whats the hardness of a stock razor wheel

 

[lewiscrampton]

...ooorrr a micro bullet wheel

 

[c4scooters]

id say 78A for stock razor and maybe 84A for micros

 

[scooterperu]

stock razors are 82A, micros are 87-bullet/84-sprite, and old yaks were 78A

low pros are 84a i think..and its called durometer too i think. The higher the number, the harder the wheel. If your wheels are wearing down too fast, maybe you should use your break less...i started riding a new pro wheel in early august in the front, and i still use it haha. its worn sooooo much.

so what do you guys think is the ultimate hardness for speed, street, and park all together?

Green Machines, 91a, perfect for street and park. People say they slip on wood park but all the times Ive rode them I havent slipped once. So so fast too.

Amen to green machines. Such sexy wheels. They seriously dont slip and are ridiculously strong. Buy them!!!

where do you get them?

 

[Meep94]

[ENERGY TURTLE]

Honestly how do you do that? Ive had mine longer then you and Im still on my first pair.

 

[lewiscrampton]

Supersonics are either 85A, or 83A, there is a choice on a site I've used (thanks to Mr. Forman). I chose 85As, are they good?
EDIT: How would 76As be?

 

[scooterperu]

i think too soft, get from 78 to 85
