    Choosing the Right Roller Skate Wheels

    Roller skate wheels come in a variety of shapes, sizes, hardness levels, and designs. Here are some general guidelines for selecting the best roller skate wheels:

    • If you're skating outdoors for recreational purposes, on surfaces like the beach or concrete, opt for fairly soft roller skate wheels around 78a hardness. These wheels are versatile and perfect for fun-filled skating experiences.
    • For indoor skating, it's best to consult with fellow skaters or rink staff to determine the appropriate hardness level based on the rink's surface and any coatings applied. Typically, a durometer range of 92a to 100a is recommended for indoor skating.
    • Consider your body weight when choosing roller skate wheels. Lighter skaters can use softer wheels, while heavier individuals may benefit from harder wheels. For example, a lightweight skater weighing 50kg/60kg or 110lb/140lb would typically opt for 92a wheels on a grippy floor. For skaters weighing 70kg/80kg or 150lb/190lb, a 95a wheel or higher is suitable. Skaters weighing 90kg or 200lb and above can consider a 98a wheel.
    • If the skating rink has a slippery surface, softer wheels provide better grip, while harder wheels are preferable for grippy surfaces, offering enhanced speed.

    Roller skate wheels are measured for hardness using the Shore scale. Harder wheels tend to have less surface contact, resulting in a slipperier ride compared to softer wheels. It's important to find the right balance that provides comfort and performance during use.

    Two scales are commonly used for roller skate wheels:

    A scale: used for urethane compound wheels

    D scale: used for plastic compound wheels

    These different materials require separate scales to measure their hardness accurately. Additionally, hardness measurements may vary between U.S. and European standards.

    Roller Skate Wheel FAQs

    Choosing the best roller skate and derby wheels boils down to high-quality features. You want your wheels to be durable while also having excellent wheel balance. The wheels must roll while also retaining their grip and rebound. If you’re looking for the best skate wheels, you need a trustworthy online retailer to handle your purchases.

    Bont Roller Skates provide everything from competitive wheels to stylish designs. It can be challenging to choose the right product amidst hundreds of choices. We have outdoor skate wheels, indoor roller skate wheels, quad roller skate wheels, and more.

    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:

    If you’re looking for indoor or outdoor roller skate wheels, we have them all. Browse from our shop and buy one that fits best for you.

    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 wheelsled roller skate wheels, and more. Bont sells the best roller skate wheels.

    Distinguishing between indoor and outdoor skate wheels is important for choosing the right wheels based on your skating environment. Here are a few key factors to consider in telling the difference:

    1. Wheel Hardness: One of the primary distinctions between indoor and outdoor skate wheels is their hardness. Indoor wheels are typically harder, usually ranging from 92a to 100a on the durometer scale. On the other hand, outdoor wheels are softer, typically ranging from 78a to 85a. So, if you have a wheel with a lower durometer rating, it's likely designed for outdoor use.
    2. Surface Grip: Indoor skate wheels are specifically formulated to provide excellent grip on smooth and polished indoor surfaces like skating rinks. They offer better traction and control for quick turns, spins, and maneuvers. Outdoor skate wheels, on the other hand, are designed to handle rougher surfaces, such as asphalt or concrete, and offer enhanced shock absorption and stability.
    3. Wheel Profile: Another aspect to consider is the profile or shape of the wheels. Indoor wheels usually have a narrower profile, allowing for quick lateral movements and agile footwork. Outdoor wheels often have a wider profile to provide better stability and balance on uneven terrains.
    4. Wheel Design: Outdoor skate wheels often feature a more robust construction with thicker and softer materials to withstand the impact and vibrations of outdoor surfaces. They may have additional features like deeper grooves or treads for improved traction on various outdoor terrains.

    By examining these characteristics, you can determine whether a skate wheel is designed for indoor or outdoor use. Remember, choosing the right wheels for your skating environment can significantly impact your performance and overall skating experience.

    Yes, you can use 85A wheels outside, but they may not perform optimally on all outdoor surfaces. 85A wheels have a relatively softer durometer, which provides better shock absorption and grip on rough or uneven terrains compared to harder wheels. They are suitable for outdoor skating on surfaces like asphalt, concrete, or other moderately rough outdoor surfaces.

    However, it's important to note that the specific outdoor conditions and the type of skating you plan to do can influence the performance of the wheels. If you're skating on extremely rough or uneven surfaces, such as gravel or heavily cracked pavement, you may benefit from even softer wheels with a lower durometer rating.

    It's always recommended to choose wheels that match the surface conditions you'll be skating on. If you primarily skate outdoors and encounter various terrains, you may consider having multiple sets of wheels with different durometer ratings to adjust to different surface conditions and optimize your skating experience.

    Using 78A wheels indoors is generally not recommended. 78A wheels have a relatively softer durometer, which provides better shock absorption and grip on rough outdoor surfaces. Indoors, however, the surface is typically smoother and more polished, such as in roller rinks or indoor skate parks.

    Softer wheels like 78A may have too much grip on indoor surfaces, which can result in slower speed and more effort required for maneuvering and turning. They may also cause excessive friction, leading to quicker wear and potential damage to the wheels.

    For indoor skating, it's usually more appropriate to use harder wheels with a higher durometer rating, typically in the range of 92A to 100A. These wheels offer better speed and smoother gliding on indoor surfaces while maintaining adequate grip.

    If you have 78A wheels and want to skate indoors, it's recommended to consider getting a separate set of wheels with a higher durometer specifically designed for indoor use. This will ensure optimal performance and longevity while skating indoors.

    While it is technically possible to use indoor wheels outside, it's generally not recommended. Indoor wheels are typically made from harder materials with a higher durometer rating, which provides better performance and maneuverability on smooth indoor surfaces like roller rinks or skate parks.

    When used outdoors, these harder wheels may result in a less enjoyable skating experience. Outdoor surfaces are often rougher and uneven, with cracks, debris, and various terrain obstacles. Harder wheels have less shock absorption and grip, which can make it more challenging to maintain control and stability while skating. They may also wear down more quickly due to the harsher outdoor conditions.

    If you're planning to skate outdoors frequently, it's advisable to invest in a set of wheels specifically designed for outdoor use. Outdoor wheels are typically softer and have a lower durometer rating, which provides better shock absorption, grip, and durability on outdoor surfaces. Using dedicated outdoor wheels will enhance your skating experience and help prolong the lifespan of your wheels designed for indoor use.

    Wearing outdoor wheels indoors is generally not recommended. Outdoor wheels are typically softer and have a higher durometer rating, which provides better shock absorption and grip on rough outdoor surfaces.

    When used indoors, the softer outdoor wheels may feel sluggish and less responsive. They can cause more friction on smooth indoor surfaces, making it harder to glide and maneuver with ease. Additionally, the softer wheels may wear down more quickly on indoor surfaces that are not designed for outdoor wheel hardness.

    For optimal performance and enjoyment, it's recommended to use wheels specifically designed for indoor skating when skating indoors. Indoor wheels are typically harder and have a lower durometer rating, allowing for smoother and faster movement on indoor surfaces like roller rinks.

    If you regularly skate both indoors and outdoors, it's a good idea to invest in separate sets of wheels for each environment. This way, you can easily switch between the appropriate wheels depending on where you plan to skate, ensuring the best skating experience and prolonging the lifespan of your wheels.

    Using indoor wheels on concrete is not recommended. Indoor wheels are typically designed for smooth and polished indoor surfaces, such as roller rinks or wood floors. They are generally softer and have a higher durometer rating, which provides better grip and maneuverability on those types of surfaces.

    Concrete surfaces, on the other hand, are much rougher and less forgiving. Indoor wheels may wear down quickly and become damaged when used on concrete. The softer composition of indoor wheels is not well-suited to handle the harshness and abrasiveness of outdoor surfaces like concrete.

    If you plan to skate on concrete or other outdoor surfaces, it is recommended to use wheels specifically designed for outdoor skating. Outdoor wheels are typically harder and have a lower durometer rating, which helps them withstand the roughness of outdoor environments while providing better grip and durability.

    By using the appropriate wheels for each skating surface, you can ensure optimal performance, longevity of your wheels, and a more enjoyable skating experience.

    For beginners, it's generally recommended to start with medium to firm wheel tightness. The wheel tightness refers to how tightly the wheels are secured onto the axles of the roller skates. The ideal tightness may vary depending on personal preference, skating style, and the specific type of skating being done.

    If the wheels are too loose, they may wobble or have excessive side-to-side movement, which can affect stability and control. On the other hand, if the wheels are too tight, they may hinder maneuverability and make it more difficult to perform certain skating techniques.

    A good starting point for beginners is to tighten the wheel nuts until they are snug against the wheel, ensuring that the wheels are secure and do not have any noticeable wobble. It's important to avoid over-tightening the wheels, as this can put excessive pressure on the bearings and lead to increased friction and slower rolling.

    As you gain more experience and become more comfortable on your roller skates, you can adjust the wheel tightness based on your personal preference and the specific requirements of your skating style. Some skaters prefer a slightly looser wheel for enhanced maneuverability, while others prefer a tighter wheel for increased stability. It's a matter of finding the balance that works best for you and your skating needs.

    Roller skate wheels should be in good condition, properly sized, and securely attached to the skate. Here are some key considerations for roller skate wheels:

    1. Condition: Check the wheels for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Replace worn-out or damaged wheels to ensure optimal performance and safety.
    2. Size: Choose the appropriate wheel size based on your skating style and preference. Smaller wheels offer more maneuverability and are commonly used for tricks and indoor skating, while larger wheels provide stability and are suitable for outdoor and long-distance skating.
    3. Hardness: Wheel hardness is measured on a durometer scale and affects grip and durability. Softer wheels (lower durometer) provide better grip and shock absorption, making them suitable for outdoor and rough surfaces. Harder wheels (higher durometer) offer less grip but provide better speed and durability, making them ideal for indoor and smooth surfaces.
    4. Bearing compatibility: Ensure that the wheel's hub matches the size and type of your skate bearings. Most roller skate wheels use standard 8mm bearings, but some may require specific bearing sizes or adapters.
    5. Secure attachment: Make sure the wheels are properly secured to the skate using the wheel nuts or axles. Check that the wheels spin freely without wobbling or excessive side-to-side movement.
    6. Regular maintenance: Keep the wheels clean and free from debris that can affect their performance. Clean the bearings periodically and lubricate them as needed for smooth rolling.

    Remember, personal preference and the specific type of skating you do will play a role in determining the ideal wheel setup for you. Experiment with different wheel sizes and hardness levels to find what works best for your skating style and preferences.

    To determine if your roller skate wheels are in good condition, you can consider the following factors:

    1. Wheel Condition: Inspect the wheels for any signs of wear, cracks, or chunks missing. If the wheels are significantly worn down, unevenly worn, or damaged, it's a sign that they may need to be replaced.
    2. Wheel Grip: Check the grip of the wheels by testing them on the skating surface. Ideally, the wheels should provide sufficient traction and grip to maintain control during turns and stops. If you find that the wheels slide or slip excessively, especially on indoor surfaces, it could indicate that the wheels have worn down or have a hardness that's not suitable for your skating style.
    3. Wheel Performance: Evaluate the overall performance of the wheels during your skating sessions. Consider factors such as smoothness of the roll, responsiveness, and stability. Good wheels should provide a smooth and comfortable ride, allowing you to maneuver and control your skates effectively.
    4. Bearing Performance: The quality of your roller skate bearings also contributes to the performance of your wheels. Ensure that the bearings are clean, well-lubricated, and spinning freely without any noticeable grinding or resistance.
    5. Personal Preference: Ultimately, your satisfaction with the wheels will also depend on personal preference and the specific type of skating you do. Different skaters have different preferences for wheel size, hardness, and profile. Experimenting with different wheel options can help you find the ones that suit your style and skating needs.

    If you have any doubts about the condition or performance of your wheels, it's always a good idea to consult with experienced skaters, skate shop professionals, or instructors who can provide guidance and advice tailored to your specific situation.

    Skating with 4 wheels, also known as quad skating, is a popular style of roller skating. Here are some steps to help you skate with 4 wheels:

    1. Proper Gear: Make sure you have the appropriate roller skates that are designed for quad skating. These skates typically have a toe stop at the front and four wheels arranged in a square pattern, with two wheels on each side.
    2. Stance and Balance: Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and knees slightly bent. Maintain a good posture and keep your weight centered over your skates. This will help you maintain balance and stability while skating.
    3. Pushing and Gliding: To start moving, push off with one foot, transferring your weight onto that foot as you extend your other leg forward. Use your pushing foot to generate momentum and glide on all four wheels. Alternate pushing with each foot to maintain a steady motion.
    4. Turning: To turn while quad skating, lean your body in the direction you want to go and shift your weight onto the corresponding foot. Bend your knees and ankles slightly to initiate the turn, and use your arms for balance. Practice turning in both directions to become comfortable with different turns.
    5. Stopping: To come to a stop, place one foot slightly in front of the other and lean back. Apply pressure on the toe stop (located at the front of the skate) to gradually slow down and come to a stop. It's important to practice stopping techniques to have better control over your speed and movements.
    6. Practice and Progress: Start by skating in a controlled environment, such as a smooth and flat surface or an indoor roller rink. Take your time to practice and build your skills gradually. As you become more comfortable and confident, you can explore different skating techniques, tricks, and more advanced maneuvers.

    Remember, safety is essential while skating. Always wear proper protective gear, including a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist guards. Start at your own pace, listen to your body, and have fun as you progress in your quad skating journey.

    The skate with 4 wheels is commonly referred to as quad skates. Quad skates have two wheels on each side, arranged in a square pattern. They are a traditional style of roller skates and have been used for various types of roller skating activities, including recreational skating, roller derby, artistic skating, and more. The term "quad skates" distinguishes them from inline skates, which have a single line of wheels.
