    Default does landyachtz dropcarve09 wheelbite?

    hey guys, this looks like a great board, a great dervish alternative for someone who has big feet. Anybody know if lose trucks with 75mm wheels will give wheelbite?
    plus small wheels dont have much rollll

    i have it so my kingpin is still inside the nut, its like an innie instead of an outie. i ride a landyachtz drop hammer, which should have more problems with wheelbite than a drop carve, and i have 76 gumballs on it, and i have 0 problems with wheelbite

    what i would do is call landyachtz and see what they say, the guy on the phone is always nice and helpful

    I've tried some searching around the board before and some say you'll get wheel bite with anything over 70mm.

    I was looking to get this board myself and was probably going to get some 70mm wheels just to play it safe. Right now I'm only riding on 63s.

    You shouldn't get any wheelbite at all. That is an advantage of this board and what makes it a good drop.

    Yeah the only time ive gotten wheelbite on mine is when i tried white khiro double barrels all around, which is waaay to soft. I run 75mm wheels on a red/blue bushing setup now and wheelbite is not a problem at all.
