The 89a durometer rating provides a long lasting, rock hard feel. For that reason, 89a is the most popular outdoor durometer rating. The added longevity of a harder wheel gives you more bang for your buck. If you are looking for a wheel that rides a little smoother, check out wheels with a durometer rating of 86a or lower. Wheels with a harder durometer rating will feel less smooth but last longer. Listing includes: quantity X8 wheels, measuring 80mm in diameter, and 89a in Hardness. Do you need bearings, spacers, oil, or a hop up kit make sure to check out our Amazon store for accessories you may need.

My impression after the first ride: Amazing.My previous experience was with FR Street Kings 80mm 85A which cost around $50 for a set.The only bad thing about Street Kings that I am aware of, is I can burn them very quickly with my skating habits (rough surfaces, hard stops). For instance, I bought my last set of Street Kings 20 days ago, and now some of those wheels 10mm shorter.I thought I needed cheeper wheels, and maybe harder ones. But I was not sure I would have the same skating experience. So I read hundreds of reviews here, and some of them were a little frightening, e.g. one person shared a photo of ruined wheels allegedly after one T-stop; another person said the wheels are asymmetrical; another person said the wheels are so hard that people with bad knees can't use them, another said the wheels are too small for bearings.On the other hand there were hundreds of other reviews saying the wheels are great, and they last forever.I thought I should give it a try. And I didn't regret. I feel like I got the same quality as with FR Street Kings for less money, and if they last at least two weeks, which I believe they will, I will never go back to more expensive brands.Just for the record: I don't feel they harder than Street Kings 85A, I don't think they are faster, I can easily extract bearings out of them, I did quite a few hard power stops with them, and you can see on the first picture the wheel is still fine. Finally, for those who are concerned that the wheels are Asymetrical. It's not that they are heavier or lighter on one of the sides, it just they have different patterns on each side so that you can tell them apart.---See the second photo after a week of testing. I skated about 10 miles a day on average. The wheels are now down to 75mm.---See the third photo after one more day of practice. The wheel is weared down to the platic core. I am a little bit sad and going back to the Street Kings. The bottom line, the wheels are good, they perform well, but unfortunately they lasted only one week for me.---Last update. Since I am still waiting for my new Street Kings, I gave it a try with my 20-day old ones, which I happened to retire prematurely. Whoa, now I see a tremendous difference in performance. The Street Kings are much faster, softer and stable.

Wanted to be sure these were durable! They are really good. I am not gentle with my skates at all. So for these to show no signs of wear after a month is pretty amazing 👌

100% This item is perfect for the price. This is not a high end roller blade wheel made from xyz for the highest possible performance. This is a wheel that will take a beating, grip to almost any surface and has a low surface connection for great speed and agility. If you know how to rotate your wheels and use a heel break instead of T stop or power slide. These wheel should last a long time. If you do use your wheels for breaking and rotate your wheels then I would give them about a month if you are a serious skater.I am 230 pounds and ride on sidewalk, trails, road, and skate rink with these. I perform small jumps, power slides, No abnormal pitting or cracks/fractures were found. These wheels are great!

Amazing wheels, after reading countless reviews, I discovered these are perfect for asphalt. I will only purchase these, save some time and buy these wheels. After researching hours and hours of my time, there couldn’t be a more perfect option for wheels for asphalt

I skate daily with dog ... 4-5 miles, on mostly concrete and asphalt. I had the original Rollerblade wheels on a medium level exercise skate ... they lasted at least 6 months (I don't remember the exact time). I do rotate the wheels, maybe not quite as often as recommended ... plus I both move them in the skate and rotate them.Bought a set of "Konkrete" wheels (eBay I think), the bright lime green ones ... and that turned out to be a huge mistake. They wore down terribly, then when I rotated them they would crumble apart, especially if I spin them. I don't believe that I got much more than a month (in the front spot) with any of the new wheels ... what a mistake!

Just went through 3 sets of these, and about to order 3 more. These wheels are good !I skate for transportation everyday to my work and 3-4 times a week for leisure, so between 30 minutes and 2 hours every day. I'm not a thin guy either (I weigh ~92kg) and often carry extra weight of water and books in my backpack so my wheels tend to wear off pretty fast (~3weeks for 85A Rollerblade HYDROGEN wheels that cost an arm) but these lasted me almost 2 months for each set, which is totally unprecedented for me. And cheap and reliable too.This is a tradeoff for comfort though, so before you buy these wheels here's what you need to know :- These are 89A wheels, so their extreme durability comes from their hardness.- 89A is waaaaay harder than regular 82A, 84A, or even 85A. Regular wheels are softer and wear off faster but dampen the shocks you get on the road, these ones don't. They're HARD, which means that you will have to adapt your skating to avoid bumps on the road because you will feel every asperity and every single gravel you roll on all the way to your hips.- Hard wheels also means you will feel a slight (yet noticeable) loss of grip, so again, you will have to adapt your skating to that.- The grip improves a bit as they start wearing off though.In short, if you're an experienced skater go right ahead with these, you'll love them and so will your wallet. Same thing if you want to use them on a ripstick or a scooter. Use caution however if you're a beginner or if grip is an issue where you skate, you'll miss bith the comfort and the grip of regular wheels.

Awesome wheels! First time replacing wheels on my skates, and these are so much better than what came stock. They wear like iron, and somehow have incredible grip. I used outdoor by Mission Bay, wish I would have replaced my bearings too instead of reusing the old ones. Also I'd recommend getting a special tool for replacing bearings (if you decide to reuse the old ones) to prevent damage,
