Which wheels for the scimitar?

[lnlds]

I'm planning on ordering a scimitar very soon (hopefully tomorrow), and I was wondering what wheels I should get for it. I'm debating between lime big zigs, and 83mm fly wheels.

I'm really torn between these wheels as they both have their pros. Grippy, smooth big zigs vs big flywheels. I just want a good all around wheel but i'm not sure which one to get. I ride on shitty sidewalks/asphalt, want to be able to carve and drift the wheels out a little (maybe standups) so i can't really decide a clearcut winner. help me!

edit: I've heard the gumballs are pretty good too? slide well but have lots of urethane? sounds like a good compromise wheel. all input/suggestions are welcome!

I've ridden both, but prefer the Bigzigs.

But if sliding is important to you, the flywheels are the way to go. Personally I'd stick with 76mm, the 83mm feel slow to me.

i think gumballs would be a good compromise
In my opinion i have tried the three and this is what i have come up with:
big zigs are smooth and eat up most of the stuff on the road and has a lot of traction and is a little harder to get into a slide

flywheels are fast and they feel really bumpy on crappy roads but they're really predictable in sliding and drifting but dont have the best traction as you wear them down the traction becomes total crap but it gets smoother and slidier everytime

Gumballs however are grippy and little easier then big zigs to slide but not as much as flywheels they're grippier then flywheels but not as much as flywheels.

you could also go for grippins which to me is much like the gumball but this is my opinion...

how well do the gumballs absorb the road vibrations compared to the big zigs?

edit: i've heard that the gumballs chunk easily? did abec 11 address these issues and fix it?

gumballs are magic carpet smooth ride, I do standups on mine and they haven't chunked a bit

shut up and ride biatch I got lime zigs Id like a sliding setup though. great and grippy wont chunk out as easilly as the 78a wheels. william rides 83s Bigzigs are really WIDE realy stable but whatever , it took me a week to decide on my setup and I didnt have the cash for the flywheels

[lnlds]

agh just as I was about to decide on the gumballs I realize that I do a lot of flatlanding, are the gumballs(78a) too soft for pushing/cruising around. I read somewhere that the pink zigs weren't recommended for flatlanding because they deform too much. Do the lime big zigs standup well?

[Firefox777]

the lime zigs are 81 a the lemon 78a , a good solid wheel the flys are a little harder to push

i rode my gumballs for about a month before they chunked and then through some tough luck i lost one in a broken bearing incedent but they were awsome up untill that point

[lnlds]

alright looks like i'm going to get lime zigs then will be ordering later tonight if all goes well
