    Default do you think Indy 139mm would work?

    i have a home made board thats 29 inches long and about 9 inches wide. Would Indys 139mm work with 61mm 78A wheels?

    Thanks in advance

    They would work but you'd be better off with some 149's or 169's IMO.

    139's have about a 5.3" hanger. you need to be using a sideset or really offset wheel.

    for centerset wheels, i'd go with 169's.

    169s unless your getting sideset wheels in which case 149 would be fine

    I don't like Indy's at 139, try the 149 or 169 - (169's are my favorite, more stable for a taller guy like me 6'2" and 180lbs).

    I really depends on which 61MM wheels, but for many park wheels you would
    need to go to at least 149's.

    It will work as long as the wheels are really side set like a flashback

    It will be fine if that's what you've got to work with.
