Default Bones bushings

So I needed some bushing real quick and went to this little skate shop by my house about 2 weeks ago and all the had were these bones bushings, so I grabbed the soft ones, there isnt a duro on them , but they are way to soft for me and was wondering if anybody knew the exact duro for them so I dont buy anything else too soft. Daddies has them now

Uhhh..........

JimZ's are like perfect for Dh and they are soft. I hope you're just trolling and not being serious.

oh yea and uhmm.......INDY'S ARE NOT A DH TRUCK (not by most standards anyway, there are a few people who do use them for DH, but its rare).

oh, and to answer your question:

they're 76a I'm pretty sure. How much do you weigh? that'll give us a better idea of what duro you want...

I weigh 110, do you actually want them?? And i know they arent real dh trucks, but with that wide of a hanger i just kinda assumed thats what you would use them for, other than real hard carving

yeah I'll totally take 'em, I run sidewinders, so tight turning/cruising is really all I do. I don't really know how I'd pay you though... I'll mail you a card with $5 in it?

if the bones softies are too soft for you, I'd look for barrels instead of conicals (less turny), nothing harder than low to mid 80's for duro.

Supposedly it's:

Soft blue 76a
Medium yellow 88a
Hard white 90a

I use the hard in all my conventional trucks. They seriously do the trick.
