Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great wheels, you get what you paid for on theseSkate quality:Smooth for multipurposeFit:They red wheels on black & red skates, 'nuf said

Bought these to replace the tires on my skates. These work great and arnt breaking as easy as the ones that came with my skates. Used them a handful of times on cement, textured cement, And inline.

Amazon says a small firm made these wheels. They hit me up a few days after I got them and asked for a review. I won't know how good they are before I wear them out, but they seem ok out of the box.I paid 50 bucks for these wheels. Not cheap. I see them for 30, marked down to 22 on the Rollerex site, but, out of stocks. All other searches lead to Amazon. If they sold these at the store, I'd try the store.I also note that some skate wheels can be had for 20 bucks, with berings. I assume these are better than those wheels. Here are some thoughts:These wheels are lighter than some. I am not a wheel-tester, but every gram counts if you have to lift up your feet a few thousand times in a 15 mile skate. I intend to put at least to a thousand miles on these wheels over one to two hundred sessions. Rolerex said these are the good wheels. They get my money because they made a product and got it to market. If I paid too much, it amounts to pennies an hour. If these wheels are even 10% better than the cheapest wheels, that is a fair market price. Corvette Vs. Porsche.If you are paying less than 50$, you are getting a deal, because someone would have paid 50.Rollerex also sent me legit instructions on installation. This suggests they are invested in the consumer getting the best performance. When the instructions are in the box from China, they are in garbled English, and for multiple products. These wheels come with a QR code for 30 days no-questions asked guarantee.30 days, no questions asked. . . . When you skate pavement, you have to be confident in your abilities and stay within them. Rollerex is confident of theirs, and already have my respect.Skate on

**Just know there are no bearings that come with these wheels. Which annoys me, who sells wheels without bearings???**That is legit the only negative thing about these and I have no idea what anyone else is talking about but these are AMAZING Wheels!The quality is superb! I've been rollerblading for 10 years and They feel the way they’re supposed to feel!They are very nice looking wheels, and of course they’re obviously plastic wheels, so they’re going to feel like plastic, when you use them. (From other reviews)A takeaway. Make sure y'all are spraying some silicone on the wheel bearings so the wheels themselves last much longer. (Unless the wheels start gathering deep holes and are worn down on one side, badly)So the update? They’re GOOD! Nothing wrong with them at all!💝💝VERY good!I Have no idea what others are talking about they’re not bad at all! (Absolutely no holes, but they’re dirty I just used them)AHH! Love them!

-I use Rollerex for both city and slalom skating, and they last just long enough to be the best wheels for the price.-Obviously your bearings will have the greatest affect on your speed, so I would recommend shopping elsewhere for bearings, but as far as wheels go, I wouldn't buy anything else. And I've had my share of bad, plasticky wheels-One reviewer mentioned their wheels were oscillating. This is caused by either excessive speed skating downhill (wheels larger than 80mm are better for high speeds) or poor bearing/spacer quality. Bones or Yellow Jacket bearings are highly regarded brands and will likely outlast your wheels with proper maintenance.-Finally, the bright, shiny color is good for monitoring wear, so you know when to rotate and when to replace.(I took picture of a wheel from my last Rollerex setup that I'm only now replacing after months of heavy use. Remember to rotate and you'll get a lot of use out of these)

Better than the stock wheels on my cheapo "Rollerderby" blades. Hold up good against poorly maintained asphalt and buttery smooth on gymnasium floor. Lots of control, good selection of colors.

There are lots of positive reviews so this feedback is just based on our experience. If you’re just looking to have fun and learn to skate I’m sure these wheels will work just fine. (purchase some bearings too. Bones Redz bearings are one affordable option).8 wheels at this price is excellent and they come in multiple sizes and colors however, the quality of the wheel isn’t great. I got these wheels for my wife to join me urban and trail skating but they were clunky and felt like hard plastic. After an hour of skating she wanted to change them out. I thought she was being a princess so I tried skating them and unfortunately had to agree. We decided to retire the wheels and get her some FR street invaders.

My 150 pound, hard skating son has gotten many hours of skating on very rough pavement so far. He does rotate the wheels to wear them evenly. These have been holding up as well as some higher priced 84A wheels that we have tried in the past. He says they have good grip and are comfortable, not too hard. They definitely won't last as some 89A that we found for a good price but they are a very good value to be sure. Compared to the 78A that have come on the last pair of skates we got him these will literally last 4 times as long. He wore those out in a couple weeks the way he skates...nearly daily for hours. It looks like these certainly could make it 2 months maybe more. It's hard to find good information about how long wheels will last...so I hope this helps someone. My son is over 150 lbs., skates pretty aggressively...not tricks just forward and backward skating, hours at a time at least 4 days a week on average. 30-40 hours per month. Basically all rough asphalt and concrete. He didn't get half that many hours out of the wheels that came with the skates...these might last for 60-70 hours before he really needs to change them.
