Pro Scooter Wheels Compatibility Essentials

Refer to this checklist to ensure your selected wheels are compatible with your scooter:

Ensure the wheel diameter fits your fork and deck

Do not attempt to fit wheels larger than your fork and deck can support
110 mm is the standard diameter for scooter wheels

Ensure the wheel width fits your fork and deck

Verify your fork and deck can accommodate your chosen wheel width
24 mm wide scooter wheels are standard
For broader wheels, check that your fork and deck are suitable for the width
If using narrower wheels than your fork and deck can handle, use spacers to bridge the gap.

For a 12STD scooter setup, verify that the wheels are 12STD

12STD wheels necessitate a fork and deck compatible with the 12STD standard
They utilise larger 6001 bearings, featuring a 12 mm inner diameter
Thicker 12 mm axles are required for 12STD wheels

Essential Features in Pro Scooter Wheels

When selecting stunt scooter wheels, consider these technical aspects. Each influences the scooter's responsiveness to your movements.

Wheel diameter

Larger wheels increase speed and stability
Smaller wheels offer lightness and agility
Typical sizes include 100 mm, 110 mm, 115 mm, and 120 mm

Wheel width

Wider wheels enhance grip
Narrower wheels accelerate faster but have reduced grip

Wheel profile

Flat profiles provide greater grip and stability
Narrow profiles offer increased speed and agility
Round profiles balance flat and narrow characteristics

Core material

Aluminium cores are robust and ideal for tricks
Nylon cores are lightweight for beginners and children (avoid using for tricks)

Core design

Solid core – Offers maximum durability, but is heaviest
Hollow core – Strong yet lighter than solid variations
Spoked core – Combines strength with lightness
Perforated core – Provides a balance between low weight and performance

For utmost durability, select a solid core. Otherwise, core selection largely depends on your aesthetic preference.

Wheel hardness

Harder urethane is more durable and less grippy
Softer urethane provides better grip but wears quicker

The common range of hardness is 84A - 90A on the durometer scale.

Identifying the Need for New Pro Scooter Wheels

Worn wheels can impair performance. Signs for replacing your pro scooter wheels include:

Cracks in the rubber
Flat spots
Core damage

These signs indicate it's time for a replacement. New wheels enhance the scooter's performance noticeably.

Frequent riders may need to change wheels every few months, whereas occasional users will find theirs last longer.

Is Simultaneous Replacement of Both Scooter Wheels Necessary?

Replacing both wheels ensures optimal balance and consistent performance across the front and rear.

Opt to replace both wheels if:

Both exhibit wear or flat spots
You prefer consistent performance front and rear
You are switching to wheels of a different type or hardness

Replace a single wheel if:

Only one wheel is damaged
You are acquiring the same type of wheel
