Essential Features When Choosing Stunt Scooter Wheels

Consider some technical aspects when selecting new stunt scooter wheels. Each factor influences your scooter's response to movements.

Wheel Diameter

Larger wheels provide greater speed and stability
Smaller wheels offer a lighter, more agile feel
Common sizes are 100 mm, 110 mm, 115 mm, and 120 mm

Wheel Width

Wider wheels ensure better grip
Narrower wheels are faster but offer less grip

Wheel Profile

Flat wheel profiles offer enhanced grip and stability
Narrow profiles are more agile and faster
Round profiles provide a balance between flat and narrow

Core Material

Aluminium cores are robust, ideal for tricks
Nylon cores are lighter and suitable for beginners and children (not ideal for tricks)

Core Design

Solid core - Most durable but also heaviest
Hollow core - Strong and lighter than solid cores
Spoked core - Strong and lightweight
Perforated core - Balances low weight and performance

If durability is your top priority, opt for a solid core. Beyond that, the choice largely comes down to aesthetics.

Wheel Hardness

Harder urethane offers longevity but less grip
Softer urethane provides better grip but wears down more quickly

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

Signs It's Time for New Stunt Scooter Wheels

Worn wheels can impact your performance. If you're unsure whether it’s time for new wheels, watch for these signs:

Cracking in the rubber
Flat spots
Core degradation

These are clear signs that an upgrade is needed. Replacing your wheels at this point will enhance the scooter's feel.

Frequent riders may need to replace wheels every few months, while casual riders may experience longer durability.

Is It Necessary to Replace Both Scooter Wheels Simultaneously?

Simultaneously replacing both wheels ensures better balance and consistent performance between the front and rear wheels.

Replace both wheels if:

Both show wear or have flat spots
You desire uniform front and rear performance
You are changing to a different wheel type or hardness

Replace one wheel if:

Only one wheel shows damage
You are getting the same type of wheel
