Angry Lush Spooky with wheel bite (Wheelbite)

Hey guys, just got my Spooky, I set it up with some Holeys, Biltins, and 83 Flywheels. The flywheels gave the board bite. Bassiccaly because of how wide the tail and nose is on the spooky. My suggestion to you is.... if your planing on getting one, makesure the wheels arent center-set.

Ouch, that's harsh. The holeys might be giving you more wheelbite as well with the slim (ish) 175mm hanger and low ride height. I ride my spooky with flipped R2s and Gumballs and it never even gets close to biting!

yeah the holeys are making it get closer too..... but do you have the old model?? because i know the old one is more narrow than the new one and is more compatible with bigger wheels than the new one.

I'm riding the new spooky! The old one looked a little flexy for my fat ass.
