i bought my grippers used and they were about 109mm now the fronts like 107mm and the back is105. i ride alot of park and ride everyday. i bought them about 5 months ago

thanks. i had an eagle in the back of my scoot for 7 months and dyed it twice and it was useless. then i bought a new 2 months ago and its soo ovalized not even electric tape can fix it, but the urethane is like down 92mm, both were 100mm btw. i just hope grippers will last alot longer.

all wheels last along time riding park but if you ride street look into buy the proto sliders, twizzlers, or proride wheels

yeah i ride street like 3 times a week and mostly like 6 stairs and ledges. you cant go wrong with protos

i really want to buy the sliders but there out of stock :/ i think i may just settle on grippers. twizzlers idk and prorides....hell no.

if you ride street definately get twizzlers or prorides but i would go with proride because there urethnae is very hard but they slip out at park but not that bad

get twizzlers

If you're doing six stairs and ledges you aren't going to get that much wear. Grinding only really wears down the side of the urethane, which only scratches up the graphics. Just stay away from powerslides and using your brake a lot if you want your wheels to last.

they had to be sliders to last you that long

proride wheels are actually really good quality wheels ive been running them awhile now and really like them. plus they make like every color combo imaginable with 3 core designs and in 100mm and 110mm sizes cant go wrong there
