Wheel Enigma

[Dain Bramage]

Hey folks
This MAY be a total noob question but i would like a little bit of a hand and i have been on the fish/lurking for a while now so i think its fair i was granted a dumb question.thanks.

Im looking for some downhill wheels for my soon-to-be-ordered evo complete.
I have been running d/h on a Rayne Hellcat with bear 10mm and 79aWhite Speedvents(85mm)

I feel that the 'vents are a touch too slippery for my liking, but i dont have any complaints about the way they slide. so i dont really like WHEN they slide, but i do like HOW they slide,just wanted that clear.

I want a DH wheel that will hold speed,make tight drop knee turns,grip if my line changes suddenly and also one that will not have a difficult or uber chattery slide when i do a safety or pendy and wont chunk under above stresses.

I am trying to keep my costs below $300 for the complete so my choices are:

85mm HAWGS
76mm Gumballs
77mm HAWGS
75mm BigZigs(probably orange/lemon?lime would look rad though lol)

let me know what you think 'fishers.
Thanks again.

All wheels can, and will chunk.

Go with lime BigZigs.

perhaps.do you know of any reputable online places to get the complete? i would get it from the landyachtz website, but they said that they are out of bear trucks so thats a big 'ol pain in my bum.im looking at stoked becuase it is alot cheaper an money is money.... lol

my lime bigs zigs are really chattery when i slide and my lemons are a lot less chattery but the oranges probably slide very well i am assuming
but the grippiest wheel i have are the limes

[Dain Bramage]

well, decided that lime zigs would be a decent choice, i am going to order some orange zigs as well though, just for shitzengiggles.

how much do you weigh? i agree with zigs. i love em. they're not the best IMO (the new superballs are awesome) but the lemon zigs grip more for me. i weigh 165. if you weigh less (probably at all) then id go with the limes. and i have some bears if you want to buy them separate from me. they're in good condition. 52* though. daddies has free shipping, which might make it cheaper then other places. no longboard shops in your area? support local places when you can.

EDIT: missed that you'd already decided. tell me how those oranges are! ive wanted to try them since i saw em

Have you emailed Mark at Mile High? He may hook you up with what you want, even if it's not pictured.
