There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on personal preference. Some people find 78a wheels to be soft and easy to ride on, while others find them to be hard and difficult to control. Ultimately, it is up to the individual rider to decide whether they prefer soft or hard wheels.
78a wheels are soft wheels that are often used for skating on smooth surfaces. They are not too soft for skating, but they may not be the best choice for rougher surfaces.
82A wheels are good for indoors because they are softer and provide more grip on indoor surfaces. They are also less likely to slide on indoor surfaces.
85A wheels are perfect for indoor use because they are extremely durable and can handle a lot of abuse. They also have a very smooth ride and are very fast.

I just finished using three sets of these and am preparing to order three more. These wheels work well.I skate between 30 and 2 hours every day to get to work every day and for fun three to four times a week. My wheels usually wear out pretty quickly (about 3 weeks for 85A Rollerblade HYDROGEN wheels that cost an arm and a leg), but these lasted me almost 2 months for each set, which is completely unheard of for me since I'm not a thin guy either (I weigh about 92kg) and frequently carry extra weight of water and books in my backpack. Also affordable and dependable.However, there is a trade-off for comfort, so consider the following before purchasing these wheels:- The extraordinary durability of these 89A wheels is a result of their extreme hardness.- 89A is far more difficult than standard 82A, 84A, or even 85A. These wheels don't dampen road shocks; regular wheels are softer and degrade more quickly. They're HARD, so you'll have to change how you skate to avoid road bumps since you'll feel every piece of gravel and asperity you roll on all the way to your hips.- Again, you will need to modify your skating to account for the minor (but apparent) loss of grip that comes with hard wheels. However, once they begin to wear off, the grip gets a little better.In conclusion, if you're an experienced skater, go ahead and get these; you'll love them and your pocketbook will, too. The same applies if you wish to use them on a scooter or ripstick. Be careful though, as you'll miss both the comfort and the grip of standard wheels if you're a beginner or if grip is a problem where you skate.

The hardness selection should be based on player weight and skating ability. A player can choose a wheel designated for a heavier skater if they have advanced skating skills to compress the wheel enough to grip. This will allow the player to maximize their speed.
Speed: The Integrated Structure Ring (ISR) built into the TORUS is a stiff and rigid support ring. As you are in your stride you are skating on what is called the "running surface" of the wheel. The ISR prevents the wheel from deflection, which creates structure and integrity within the wheel and allows for Speed.
HARDNESS LEVELS: 74A our Red Wheel – 170lbs and below. 76A our White Wheel for 170lbs and above. SIZE OPTIONS: 59mm, 68mm, 72mm, 76mm & 80mm
Grip: The technology of the TORUS is initiated as your feet and body enter a turn. As your weight gets shifted to the outer edges of the wheel, the TORUS bends and deflects with you to keep you up and skating at extremely sharp angles. You will not slip out. This is due to 1) the flexible side walls of the TORUS; and 2) the hollow design of the TORUS which allows for room to flex.
One of our most popular inline hockey wheels on the market is the Revision Variant Wheel that sets a new standard for speed, grip, and durability thanks to the new Platform Core and our upgraded TORUS technologies which hold a US PATENT NO. US7090306.

On my wheelchair for basketball, I utilised these. Having a variety of sizes made me pleased. For my chair, many of these wheels are 80mm in diameter. They maintain good court grip without slipping. I'm moving much more quickly than the old wheels. Since I only required four wheels, I'm also glad that there were just four rather than eight.

I swapped out the regular hard plastic wheels on my Pelican case, which I use to transport my camera gear, for 64x18mm wheels. Even though I have the padded divider set from Pelican inside, I've never been happy with how the hard plastic OEM wheels tend to broadcast every bump and vibration inside the container. I was curious when I read reviews in which people had swapped out their wheels for similar luggage/skate wheels. Could such a small, inexpensive change really make a big difference? Absolutely, yes. These wheels are quite simple to install. Simple tap out the OEM wheel pins from the inside out and remove the original wheels by removing the two screws on each side that secure the original wheel housings. After that, either remove the OEM bearings and install them in the new wheels using the OEM pin, or use the bearings and hardware that came with the new wheels to fasten them to the housings. I opted to replace the pin exactly as it was from the manufacturer using the first option, and it works well. Since these wheels are made of rubber, my case now glides quite smoothly and appears to absorb shock far better than the stock wheels did. Rolling is undoubtedly much quieter now than it was previously since it is almost silent. If you own a Pelican 1510, I cannot express enough how highly I suggest this upgrade. The 64mm wheels appear to be the maximum size that may be installed without the wheel rubbing against the housing. I've read a few tales about people using 68mm wheels, but I'm not sure whether the case has been altered in any other manner to accommodate that size of wheel.

To replace the stock plastic wheels on our children's automobile, we purchased these rollerblade wheels. Standard ones were too noisy and made of plastic. These wheels, which come in a set of 8, are substantially quieter.

These are without a doubt the best toe stops I've ever used in the years that I've played roller derby. They have enough grip to stop fast and are wide enough for controlled stops, but not too sticky that they cause unintentional blocking. The sole drawback is that they are prone to coming loose, which may or may not be related to the design itself. To be sure my other toe stops haven't come undone, I have three locking mechanisms. These broke loose several times on my first night of use, unlike others which took months. I occasionally utilize my toe stops more than my wheels, so it may be my skating technique, my skates' mechanics, or the locking devices I've installed. If not, LOVE THEM!

I was relieved to find these and avoid having to replace the scooter entirely. These were excellent. very simple to replace. fit flawlessly. Nothing at all wrong. And the lighting is excellent. I would repurchase.

My 150-pound son has skated on very unforgiving pavement for numerous hours so far. To ensure even wear, he rotates the wheels. These have been performing just as well as some more expensive 84A wheels we have previously tried. He claims they are comfortable, not too firm, and have good grip. They undoubtedly won't survive as long as some 89A that we found at a decent price, but they are unquestionably a really good deal. These skates will actually last four times as long as the 78A that were on the last pair we bought him. The way he skates—almost every day for hours—he wore those out in a matter of weeks. These appear to have a good chance of lasting two months or longer. I hope this helps someone because it's difficult to obtain reliable information about how long wheels will endure. My son, who weighs over 150 pounds and skates very vigorously for hours at a time, four days a week as least, without doing any tricks. 30 to 40 hours monthly. Mostly rough concrete and asphalt. These wheels might last for 60–70 hours before he really needs to change them; he didn't get quite that many hours out of the wheels that came with the skates.

I hadn't skated in perhaps twenty years. The year was 1990. I had incredible support from the Senate. I had access to too many wheels. Anyway. I recently purchased a pair of skates. a machine for cardio. Yup. I've reached my elderly age! The factory wheels worked fine. I think I got 50 to 60 miles out of them. When it came time to replace, I realized I had few options. The first two sets I received were junk. each lasted five miles. I located these. Both the pricing and the reviews were favorable. I bought them. The wheels felt almost too harsh when they arrived. The bearings also exhibited no spin. I replaced the bearings in my skates after lubricating them. Day one went well, at least as far as getting oriented. BUT all they required was some breaking in. These wheels are not only holding up after more than 120 miles, but they also feel better than they did on day one! Color choices are also legitimate.

I apologize for this review's length. I spent a lot of time researching across numerous websites to obtain the right replacement Ripstik wheel size and durable wheels. It was, to put it mildly, difficult. I read hundreds of reviews, and they all seemed to repeat the same complaint—that the wheels they bought broke down in an absurdly brief period of time (hours)—almost convincing me to forego buying replacement wheels altogether and instead simply buy a new board. Then I discovered a review on Knot Board Sports that was hidden deep and advised choosing the ENDURANCE type wheels. Yet ENDURANCE was only offered in 80mm. My board, as far as I could tell, was probably one of the regular ones that came with 76mm wheels originally (purchased at Walmart). Another review that was suppressed said that an 80mm board would fit a normal model. Despite my reservations, I bought them because they were only $11. They showed up, but they didn't fit. I was extremely let down. In response to my email from KBS reaffirming my narrative, they said they were fully refunding my money, that I may keep the wheels, and that I should file the wheels down. They added that a 76mm ENDURANCE size replacement wheel is in the works. The wheels were attached to a drill, and I used a coarse metal file to shape them till they suited my board. It was by no means simple. But I can assure you that this wheel material (ENDURANCE), given the amount of time and pressure I gave while firmly grinding, won't wear out at all quickly. I can't speak for the 68mm wheels that KBS sells, but it appears from the color and size website buttons that it doesn't come in ENDURANCE (it was a little confused), so I can't say whether the material wears out quickly as all the other websites' replacement wheel product reviews had parroted. This review should be useful to some people. Additionally, I'm hoping KBS releases the ENDURANCE version in the other sizes that so many people are looking for in replacement wheels.
Yes, 85A wheels are good for street skating. They are hard enough to withstand the abuse of street skating, but soft enough to provide a smooth ride.
There is no definitive answer to this question as what works well for one skater may not work well for another. However, some skaters find that 95A wheels work well for street skating because they provide a good balance of speed and grip. Others may prefer softer or harder wheels depending on their skating style and the surface they are skating on. Ultimately, it is important to experiment with different wheel durometers to find what works best for you.
No, all inline skate wheels are not the same size. The most common sizes are 72mm, 76mm, and 80mm, but there are also 64mm, 68mm, and 84mm wheels available. The smaller the wheel, the easier it is to maneuver, but the less stable you will be. The larger the wheel, the faster you can go, but the harder it is to turn.
Inline skate wheels can be replaced, but it is not a simple process. The wheels are held in place by bearings, which are also the part that allows the wheel to rotate. To replace the wheels, you must first remove the bearings from the old wheels and then press them into the new ones.
If your skate wheels are leaving black streaks on the ground, it means they are worn down and need to be replaced. You should also get new wheels if you start to feel like you are losing control of your skateboard, or if your wheels are making strange noises.
Inline skate wheels typically need to be replaced every 3-4 months, depending on how often you skate. To prolong the life of your wheels, avoid skating on rough surfaces and keep them clean and dry.
