well,all i can say is most skaters will be happy with wheels from 52mm to 54mm, with a hardness of 99a (higher number means harder). But, if you want to give it a little more thought, then first ask yourself what kind of skateboarding you think you'll be doing.

Transition / Vert

Larger skateboard wheels roll a lot faster, and when riding ramps this is what you want. Try 55-65mm size wheels (though many ramp skateboarders will use even larger wheels -- try something like a 60mm wheel first, as you learn), with a hardness of 95-100a.

Street / Technical

Skateboarders who like doing flip tricks often like smaller wheels, as they are lighter and closer to the ground, making some skateboarding tricks easier and faster. Try 50-55mm skateboard wheels, with a hardness of 97-101a.

Both / All Terrain

You'll want something in the middle, with slightly softer skateboard wheels. Try a wheel size 52-60mm, with 95-100a hardness. This should give you a balance between speed and weight.

Cruising

Usually cruising wheels are much larger for speed (64-75mm) and much softer for riding over rough terrain (78-85a). Other wheels for cruising are available, such as huge dirt wheels with knobs, but these aren't recommended for skateboards



be careful when choosing your wheels..
happy choosing.. icon_rolleyes.gif
