Alright I'm sorry for sounding like a noob on this one but what wheels are best? By best I mean best value, price, looks, and durability. Durability is probably the most important cause I dont wanna be going through wheels quickly...

this thread is gonna start hell.
but basicly, theres protos and eagles.
its pretty much preference, but alot of protos have been dehubbingin like 2-3 weeks. if they dehub in a full circle, they get replaced. but if eagles break in any way, they get replaced.

Eagles are quite slippery, but i never really thought they were slippery on wood skateparks, more on smooth concret or blacktop.

well I'm thinking about getting eagles case even te slightest chunking is under warantee as I've been told. The only thing I'm wary about is the slipping issue. Do they slip right out from under you so much that you can't even turn or is it barely noticable?

wtf eagles dont get replaced in any way? if they chunk REALLY bad they are replaced, and idf they dehub they get replaced, only if it was there fault, i mean if u do something that will break it and it does its yours?

my eagle has hardly ever slipped out, but i have flatspotted it because the urethane was too soft

Haha, you're funny.


Eagles. Pretty much from what you will hear, two out of every ten wheels that dehub at Eagles, the rest being Proto. I'm sure Andrew will figure out how to fix the dehub problem.
As far as the "slippery" problem. I've never had any issues and I've ran several different Eagle's. I only slip out when the park or spot itself is slippery. No problems on wood.
