 Any recommendations if so? I want a narrow one, think 60mm and about 95a.

Cockroach 60's 60mm 96a, Santa Cruz OJ II Elite Combos 60mm 95a, and the Santa Cruz OJ Street Razor 60mm 95a?

Any wheel 95a 60mm? I'm only half everyone elses weight so 95a to me is like 100a to normal people. I've been working really hard in my new job, love it, and want a smaller wheel as my treat to do coping tricks on these small ramps. :-D

 Thank you, but isnt 54mm really slow? I have 64mm and they are too big, esp. for small people like me but good for outdoor skateparks. Hard for lip tricks. But I think 54 would be the opposite extreme?

 Can your trucks fit skateboard wheels? I had spitfires that were 54 mm 99A. I did not mind how small they were, but they got flat spots really fast. If you can fit skateboard wheels get the SPF's. Mine are so smooth and fast and I hear they don't get flat spots. When I had my narrow trucks, I could only use rollerskate wheels and I hated them because they don't make them hard enough and the hard ones are for indoors.

I skate Kryptonics Shadows 60 mm, 95 A. Before that I had 56 mm wheels in 98 A which where too small.

 OK, think I will go with the ugly cockroaches lol. Least the graphics will wear off! But I think 60mm is a much better size for me and 96a will be plenty hard for me. I do some street so I still want my wheels to grip the ground enough to push off to get speed to the ramps and land jumps. If I went 99a, I would be sliding around on the ground. I think if I went smaller, I would lose speed too? Thanx dude!

Wheels I know nothing about really lol. But I just got some old 265s. WOW, they fit MUCH better!! They leather is twice as thick and soft as anything too. Whats up with the new crappy stuff? I want all the old 265s. I was told I could pry layers off the heel if I wanted it lower. Man, an old boot is much cheapier then custom made thin boots of today.

You put that very nicely, Joe. And I think we are in no great danger of the people you described. There are just too few possible victims for them here! ;-)
