    Jim, you can get 215's at Blades. At least the last time I was there you could. If not, I have a set I got from there, I'm sure we can work something out.

    Brian, how do have your Holey's set up bushing-wise -- are you using the stock Holey red bushings, or have you found other ones? I have 2 sets of holey's just sitting in a box (didn't really like them on my DH boards) and need to find a good use for them.

    Hey Ned, I switched the red stock bushings out for Bones hard insert bushings but the height was too low and my hanger kept getting hung up on the baseplate. I then switched to Khiro black KBAC-1 ( big barrel bottom, smaller insert top ) to improve the hanger height. Now I have the height I was looking for and even with them cranked down I still have serious controlable turning ( due in part to the small wheel base). I don't know hokw this translates to longer wheel bases though.

    Hope that helps.

    Ned, how much for the Holey's? I have a set (4) of Gravity Fu-Man Chu (white) I used for about 3 or 4 days the most, and never rode them again. I also have a Gravity 39" deck I used 4 or 5 times the most.
