    Exclamation Grand Prix 88mm wheels

    very very nice. The 75mm are fast and sticky so I expect the same from these.



    beefy!

    Its that hub thats expensive.
    the wheels are under 50 bucks.
    pretty cool that you can opt for different size/duro if you get more wheels. (when they become available)



    You get all the cool stuff Mark. 8)

    you can buy tyres without the rims, and they're only a bit more expensive than usual wheels.
    They have 3 bearings per wheel if you didn't already know.

    I want to see them make a mark on the racetrack, be it luge or standup.
