100mm or 110mm

[Tone Staubs]

I haven't bought wheels before so I was wondering from you guys on here, what size should I get?

 

[BrandonWeir]

Well its really all about preference, so you're probably gonna get a lot of mixed answers. You could buy some 110's just to try them, and if you don't like them then you can just sell them in the forums here.

I personally like bigger wheels, even though I'm not riding any atm.

I guess something you could think about - although the differences are very slight - is that bigger wheels are gonna have a faster top speed, and smaller wheels are gonna have easier acceleration.
Just to clarify that probably doesn't matter at all but if you're really particular then there you are.

I like smaller wheels in the back and bigger in the front. My rear wheel is like 88-90 mm and my front is like 105 mm lol

 

[BrandonWeir]

Haha I tried riding big in front and small in back, but everything I do gets all lopsided and off axis if I don't have the same sized wheels.

 

[Devin Catron]

90...thats tiny

 

[BrandonWeir]

Thats what half my wheels are worn down to. My old gm's are worn down to like 75.

 

[BenJelinek]

Well I have no money to buy new wheels and my back wheel is a red pro wheel that I've been using FOREVER so it's really really worn down

 

[BrandonWeir]

Welcome to the club. Yak Scat in the back, old worn down razor wheel in the front ftw! lol.

Dual 110s for life.

I bought some 1oomm wheels like 6 months ago, and they are fine for me cause I have never ridden anything different. I'm eager to try 11o's though, I'm gonna buy some when I get some new forks

 

[Tone Staubs]

Alright, thanks guys

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

ive always ridden small ass wheels and i realllly want to ride 110 or 125 cause my friend has like a A3 or some shit and it has 125's it felt soo beast

 

[Tone Staubs]

I think I'm going to get 100 mm Demon Metal Cores

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

[BrandonWeir]

I wanna ride 125's soooo bad but like the only 125's I've really seen are good old yaks.

 

[DJ Lee]
