Roller skating wheels come in many different shapes, sizes, hardness, and designs. Here are some general rules for choosing the best roller skate wheel:
If you are skating outdoors for fun, by the beach, or on concrete, you are going to want a fairly soft roller skate wheel that is around 78a. No matter how you skate, this hardness wheel is great for having fun.
If you are skating indoors, you will need to talk to people at the rink and ask them what hardness wheels they use. This will depend on the surface of the rink and if it has any coating on it. You will be looking for a wheel that is between 92a to 100a durometer.
If you are a very lightweight skater, you can use a softer wheel; if you are a heavy person, you will want a harder wheel. As an example, if the roller skate rink has a nice grippy floor then a lightweight skater who is 50kg/60kg or 110lb/140lb you would be looking at the 92a wheels. 70kg/80kg or 150lb/190lb a 95a wheel or above 90kg or 200lb a 98a wheel.
If the rink is very slippery, you will want to use a softer wheel, and if it is very grippy, you can select a harder roller skate wheel for more speed.
Roller skate wheels use the Shore scale to measure their hardness. Harder wheels often have less surface contact, making them more slippery than softer wheels. It’s all about finding the balance that feels comfortable during use.
There are two scales used for roller skates:
A scale: for urethane compound wheels
D scale: for plastic compound wheels
Since these materials act differently at each hardness level, they need separate scales. In addition, U.S. measurements in hardness are also different from that of European ones.
Over time you’ll find that wheels harden due to wear and aging. When a wheel becomes too hard, they tend to be difficult to control.
The hardness will tell you where the best use of the wheels is. The best outdoor roller skate wheels have different measurements, depending on the environment. Some wheels work best for skate parks, while others are designed for streets.

How to Change Roller Skate Wheels?
There are many reasons why you’d want to change wheels. You may desire wheels with a different hardness level, for example. Taking it apart and putting it back together may seem like an overwhelming process. To simplify it, you need a few tools.
The first thing you need to do is use the tool on the nut of the skate wheel axle and unscrew it. Make sure to put the nut in a safe location, as you’ll need it when putting in the new wheel. Pull off the old wheel. Then place the new wheel with its new bearings onto the axle. You may notice that some wheels offer less room for the nut, depending on how wide it is. Screw the nut back with your fingers and make sure the wheel aligns. Tighten the nut using the skate tool. Make sure to leave a little room for the wheel to spin, so don’t tighten it too hard. Spin the wheel with your hand to make sure it’s working. Then, double-check the nut to make sure it’s secure. You can get both the wheels and bearings you need at Bont. We have different types of products, such as:

How to Get Bearings Out of Skate Wheels?
Knowing how to remove and install the bearings can make all the difference in your skating experience. It is one of the most vital skate parts, needing extra care. Whether it’s four wheel roller skates or luminous skate wheels, here’s what you need:
Bearing removal tool
Bearing pusher
Allen wrench
Three-sided aftermarket tool
Each wheel has a bearing on the side. Slide the Allen wrench in the middle and slowly rotate the wheel. Then, use your removal tool or flathead screwdriver to pry the bearing from the inside of the wheel. It will act as a crowbar. This method works best for floating-bearing spacers. You’ll only need the removal tool to pry the bearing in simpler standard bearing spacers. This method works for all types of roller skates. You can use it for outdoor quad skate wheels, led roller skate wheels, and more. Bont sells the best roller skate wheels.
Roller Skates: A Brief History
Skating is one of the oldest pastimes, tracing its origins to the 1700s. It was an invention meant to make other products noticeable but lacked balance. French inventors began furthering their potential in the 1800s, and the quad skates design originated there.
Today, skating remains a hobby or pastime for many, and there’s even a competitive scene surrounding it. Many believe that its popularity stemmed from the idea of it being another method of transportation apart from walking or running. Nevertheless, it’s unlikely that roller skates are going out of style any time soon.
