Dont try to go under 30$ a set, its usually a really shitty wheel.
Show up at as many longboard events on your island, the sponsored events usually have free wheels or riders selling used gear. thats the cheapest way to get free or almost free wheels.

First set of inheats from dubes- free, though coned, they lasted long enough for me to learn a whole lot of skating.
Second set of inheats- $25+shipping off the classifieds, hardly worn. currently coning as fast as I can skate them.
on top of that I got crails ($45 down from $70) and my evo (80 down from 130) off the classifieds.
I also got new kingpins for $1 each from griff when we skated together.
get into the community, it will reward you.

They're not available to me in my local skateshop which kinda sucks. I've tried blue krypto's and i own a set of 83a drifters (too ovalized/flattspoted), but i found that the s9's have the best wear, comparable to retro's....which kinda sucks cause i want them to last longer!

Re: Show me... abused wheels!
They were blue Bennett Alligators that my brother had on his board for about a year. I rode 'em for about 3 hours before they died. They left nice blue trails and slid with a pleasingly rubbery feel. The back wheels are very worn; but not fully cored.
AJ: More than style, I've got will to live. Brian had gone over a cliff earlier that day so I wasn't hauling too much ass. The beer sign is Dubes'.
