This 58mm wheel is the optimal size for all around street and park skating. It is small enough to keep you close to the ground, and stay out of the way while grinding, yet large enough to last you while skating rough surfaces in the streets. 95a is the hardest option for the Dead Wheels. These wheels generously drift on rough ground. It is tailored for flat, street skating setups where one wants to sacrifice grip for friction reduction while grinding or sliding. Due to this, this hardness is not recommended for slick or dusty skate parks. 92a is the all-around, street or park skating durometer option. This durometer wheel provides a great balance between grip while skating, and reduced friction while grinding. If you’re not fully sure what hardness fits your style of skating, it is recommended to utilize the 92a for both flat and anti-rocker setups. 88a is the lowest durometer urethane, providing the maximum amount of grip and control. This wheel holds very well in sharp turns and is a great option for skating smooth wood, metal or concrete skateparks. On rougher surfaces, these wheels can wear down quickly. When riding with 88a wheels in the middle, make sure the frames have enough wheel bite protection, as they can stop you from sliding.
