    id reccomend the randals, perhaps 180s since you have no cutouts. Some Abec 11 flashback wheels and bones reds bearings.

    Im sure alot of people would reccomend different but tough **** to them because i was here first. :P

    Sounds like a great set up.

    Reds are the best bearings in the $10-$15 dollar range, but
    if you want to spend more you can get better.

    Skateboard bearings are 608, meaning an 8mm inner diameter.
    So if you have that size in your shop give them a try.

    They might not be as good as Bones, Oust, NiNjA, Rockets, ect,
    but they might be better than a lot of other bearings on the
    market. Most bearings (other than the ones listed above, and
    a few others) are complete crap anyway. So if you can find
    some that fit try them and let us know how it works out.

    You can always go and buy some bones reds or better latter.

    I'll just make it easy: do what "ridethewave" suggested and you will be DIALED, bud!

    By the way, note the Randal's on Chris's photo of his board.
