    Default Wheels for NPG

    So I'm racing in Newtons Playground in a few weeks and am looking to buy some new wheels. Basically I want wheels that grip

    Wheels I'm considering: 77a white avilas (although I think I may only be able to get the 72a's), mini-monster hawgs, big80 minus5's (last resort wheels, can't really afford them)

    other wheels I'm not to sure about: Tunnel STR trantulas, or sayshun plasma O's

    Any recommendations, reviews, or experiences you've had with any of those wheels would be appreciated.

    cheers

    78a 69 or 70 or 74 or 77mm S9 RF's OR pink big zigs or zig zags are all i can think about when i hear grip.

    Don't you worry your pretty stripped head we're gonna get you back to Tyson and your cozy tiger bed.
    And then we're gonna find our bestfriend Doug and then we're gonna give him a bestfriend hug.

    i'm bringing 80a orange cults (psychothane?) and 80a 4prezs, I don't think the 4prez are grippy enough but they are those are the new wheels I have. How many new sets of wheels are you planning to bring? I'd go with lime zigs if I could buy new wheels though.

    I should of probably mentioned that the wheels have to be here in aus, otherwise it is going to take too long for them to get here

    cilibird- probably going to bring my set of broken in and slightly radiused lime zigs and then a set of whatever I buy, If I have enough I'll get two sets.
