Default Double Barrel RTS/X?

I'm getting my Rayne Timeline set-up with some RTX/S trucks and i was wondering what you guys think about double barreling my trucks with maybe a white/orange or white/blue Khiro setup. I weigh about 170 and im really trying to achieve a really hard carving truck while maintaining some stability.

i double barrelled my front truck and it had strong rebound-too much snap back 4 me, now i have just the back done and it seems pretty good, it will act diff i can tell u that, very stable.
i ate #### because i wasn't used to it, just take your time and experiment is what i know-worth checking out and i'm sure it has it's place.
ps-i did it on randal 50 front flipped -42 back unflipped, pretty hard bushings and i only weigh 140 or so.
pps did i mention i ate #### lol

edit i think i can get this set up to work for me just need to loosen my trucks
not sure if this helps or even if i am on the same page as u - if i'm way off just ignore me

Orange and white is too soft for your weight, get Blue and Orange instead. Or even blue/blue.
