    Default wheel help

    Im planning on buying the new buttons deck when it starts shipping from gravity, but I need some new wheels to throw on there. Im looking for something around 66mm, and probably between 80 and 84a. Ill mostly be cruising on this deck but I need a wheel for slides decently too. Ive been looking at the 66mm 83a zig zags, 84a street gs, and maybe strikers, but Im open to any other suggestions.

    Thanks

    I'm a huge Abec11 fanboy, so yes, ZZ's, or check out the retro bertz.

    66mm 81a strikers are amazing in that they hold a carve really well, but once you put a glove down and deweight the board, these wheels sliiiiiide so nicely. They're fast and my set seems to be wearing very slowly. Not the best wheel for drifty carving though; they either grip, or slide.
