hi, im braziliam and a love longboards...
I want to buy new wheels(fast wheels) to my longboard ( sector 9 , SECTIONS DECK, 34' with SIDEWINDER trucks)....to carve, cruise, amke zig zags with speed(like 23mph) and make LITLLE slides.
im looking o-tangs wheels(I will not be able to test, my brother will buy in usa)...

80a or 83a?

thx a lot my brothers

Get 70mm Orangatang 4President for that setup, considering the stock wheels are 65mm, and there are no wheel arches. Orange 80a for more grip, Purple 83a for more slide.

Or 70mm Pink 77a/ Lime 80a/ Yellow 83a Retro Zigzags for a cheaper option.

Or 70mm Sector 9 Race Formula 80a/78a for an even cheaper option.

If you missed it, lower duro (78a) has more grip, slightly slower, higher duro (83a) has less grip, easier slides, bit faster.
80a is generally considered best combination of both.

I urge you not to get sidewinders.

If you get a sector 9 that has mission 1 trucks, but some bones hardcore (medium) bushings for it. If you get a sector 9 that has any of their other trucks, get some venom, reflex, or sabre bushings, they will make your board feel like it's worth 3x as much.

Sooo... is your name liam?

I would get some off set, slightly rounded wheels like the Stimulus, nothing over 70mm. Also, noskoolz are win.

ok thanks a lot, but, the sidewinder trucks are realy bad(carve with little slide in the curves, 20-25mph)?
