    Default Rotating Center Set Wheels

    Hey I have a set of centerset s9 nineballs and wanted to rotate. I know for centerset you can just flip them around, but I was wondering if its good to flip them and switch their position on the board or is just flipping all the wheels the best way?

    Any comments or suggestions?? I just rotated my wheels, I just flipped each one and left them in their regular positions on the board. I hope this is fine. If not, let me know. Thanks!

    1) Remove all 4 wheels from their installed location.
    2) Drop all 4 wheels in to a large paper bag.
    3) Shake paper bag vigorosly for 8-10 minutes.
    4) Remove wheels from paper bag and re-install on skateboard.
    5) Skate and enjoy.

    Seriously, you might move the front to the back, because usually you ride more weight on the front and fishtail the rear, or at least I do. That's about it except sometimes I had a board that bizzarely coned only the back left wheel, so I would just move the least worn wheel into that spot.

    Yeah I noticed that one of my back wheels had a lot more wear on the outside edges than my others wheels. This makes sense too since I run my front trucks looser than my back so I usually just slide the back. Thanks for help.
