yeah..i know that.. i've seen the wheel's price at sk8shop at Ipoh (i stayed there that time).. surprisingly the price are higher..
so my cousin said he will try to find it at UK (United Kingdom, not Ulu Kelang) back then.. and when he come back here, he told me to give him RM 40 for a set of BONES wheels

Does it matter? wooooaaaa!!! nice looking board there..congratz  FYI, nose should be a little bit longer than tail..if u see carefully, there's a diff length between tail n nose.. It is matter becoz the nose should give u extra grip when perform trick and tail should give u quick pop..that's why nose are longer and tail are shorter..got what i mean??
