Ryan Erwins old GM's were pretty low on urethane i think.

 

[gerkin of honour]

my friend tyler was riding a green machine for so long there was less than a mm of urethane and the middle of the wheel was the plastic core.
i might be able to get a pic but probably not.

ya i have, i really dont care if you believe me or not but yes that was ridden for that long while i waited for my new wheel to ship. Notice how the whole wheels is small so it was evenly ridden until it cracked and teared in that spot.

I have a really small pro model wheel. I have no idea where it came from though.

yeah i wore them all the way down. i recently threw both of them away, so i dont have any pictures but here is what they looked like before they got down to the core.

this is the only piece that i have left. when the urethane got all the way down, the strip in the middle just fell off, this is what it looks like. and that was how thin the urethane was at the middle of the putside of the wheel.
