Re: bushings for sidewinders
I like to use kihros and holeys.
Kihros have awesome rebound, and the holeys hourglass shape make for some awesome turning.
I use the kihros on the top kingpin (closest to the board), and the holeys on the lower kingpin.
The hardness is up to you, but with harder ones on the top and softer ones on the bottom, the sidewinders pump like nobodys business. Thats all imo.
Hope that helps.

Kihro red top bushings, holey red bottom bushings. I run the top kingpin tighter than the bottom one.

Re: bushings for sidewinders
good snap to center, very deep carves, but go harder for more high speed stability. the sidewinders don't have much of that, but you can get more.

Re: bushings for sidewinders
front truck
top two should be indy orange or khiro red
bottom two should be blue khiros, both barrels. ( this will make a sick as hell pumpable truck in the front for a 200 pounder)
back truck
top two should be purple khiro kit cone and barrel
bottom two should bones hards for a stable back truck also for a 200 pound guy.

Re: bushings for sidewinders
I'm getting bones hardcores (soft and medium) soon, I'll let you know how they are. someone suggested a combination of red and blue khiro barrels, sounded good to me.
