anyone can say something a lil more informative please!??

[JoeyKovacs]

Yes. And so does hardware. and bearings..

Anyways, the answer is no. If your so concerned about a couple of extra millimetres, then your only in the sport for competing with people. Skating is for fun. Shit, just buy some wheels, and skate.

[TrAnCe]

the reason people think that wheels affect your ollie is because they think that with bigger wheels, you are further off the ground giving yourself more pop. a normal wheel is 54mm. a large wheel is 60mm. that 6mm wont increase ur ollie too much

[goofy m3ng]

unless uve got super huge car wheels which the tail is no where near the ground :p

Anyways, nah it doesnt,

[Anticaco]

cuz im buying some 26'' rims for my skateboard, no really i bought some 54 rictas, they are good?

[smurf88]

Yeah, and 54 isn't that big. If you have low trucks you might want to get risers or just tighten them.
