new wheels

[ShineDsouls]

hey dudes, i have a longboard that ive had for about 6 months to a year, just wondering if i should slap some new wheels and stuff on there, how long before i should change all that stuff

L: 31.75"
W: 8.25"
WB: 17.1"

what kind of wheels would be best?

The specs make it sound like a pool board (kicktail?) If so I'd put some Rainskates or BonesSPF on and take it to the skate park

a. dont double pos it will preserve the longevity of your board :-p

1. if the wheels have moderate to bad coning and or flatspots that are notisable while riding i usually change them.

2. trucks will most likely outlive you

3. bushings dont get hurt much but if you find em getting really flat its time to swap them out

4. Bearings i find the less you #### with them the better they roll so i dont take em out until they stop rolling. Some ppl have a cleaning schedule and swear by it though YMMV.

5. nuts and bolts should be replaced if they vibrate loose from riding.

6. griptape should be replaced when its just too dirty

really skateboards dont require too much matienance and if you give it regular tune ups and onceovers b4 sessions you should be fine.
