I'm 99% sure that would be impossible, as you can't dye wheels a lighter color than they already are. In other words, good luck dying bright green wheels yellow.

I doubt they're dyed. However, urethane does degrade over time. Especially if it was left in the sun. My guess is they just faded over time.

that might be the case, especially considering the hints of green I see... and I'd think the graphic would've been different, no?

**CarlTheSmokingCrab** · 09-21-2009 10:09 AM

No, they're the real deal. I bought them from an old school speedboarder who used them at Skid Road back in 2002
I remember watching that race on 3rd and Yesler... people hit this garbage can like there was no tomorrow. Man.

This is a little off track but, I recently purchased some wheels from MileHighSkates . The wheels were supposed to ship with bearing and spacers . Well, somewhere in the postal dis-service the bearings got lost. I sent Mark an e-mail and within an hour Mark had responded that he would mail another set of bearings ASAP .

Now keep in mind that this is NOT Marks responsibility to replace something lost by the postal service .

So HUGE PROPS to Mark and his customer service . It seems to be a lost art these days.

One question: Why were the bearings not in the box/envelope with the wheels?

No, no one has ever ridden an FSM. Especially not on the website where you found the reviews.

Wheels were vacum bagged together, spacers and bearings were in thier own bag/sleeve. Wheels and spacers made it. The bearings being heavy and in a sleeve were apparently small enough to exit the shipping envelope which had a small tear when recieved.
