Sector 9 Longboard Wheels
Longboard wheels are a popular item these days. With the growing popularity of longboarding, good longboard wheels are becoming easier to find. Sector 9 offers a wide variety of wheels for all different types of riding. The have the smaller 54mm-60mm sized wheels that are great for your regular skate such as the deep end series sector 9 boards and for hitting up the parks that come in a range of durometer from 78a(soft) to 101a(very hard).
They also have the highly popular cruise style wheels from 61mm to 81mm in size. For your mini longboards you probably want something in the 61mm to 65mm size as they will offer a nice smooth ride and still allow the board to turn without wheel bite. The most popular size of wheel has to be the 70mm size wheel it is a great wheel for speed and also offers a smooth ride over most surfaces.
Another style wheel sector 9 makes is a carving or slalom style wheel which are highly recommended if you are using gullwing sidewinder trucks. They have a 69mm size, 72mm size, and 74mm size. Personally I prefer the 74m sector 9 wheels over any of the nineball, slalom, or top shelf style sector 9 wheels.
The newest addition to the sector 9 longboard wheels are the race formula wheels, out for a little over a year now they are made with a top of the line high quality urethane. They are available in 69mm to 81mm sizes in both cruise style and slalom or carving style wheels. Make sure to check these wheels out as they are many down hill riders favorites.
