I have some similar to those. Soldier Bar's SB4 wheels are similar although they don't have QC issues like ones in those pictures and they have bearing shields. I haven't set them up yet but I've set up some translucent versions of them. They're alright but the performance of other bearing wheels exceed them.

I am going to save the glow in the dark wheels for when I get some glow in the dark grip and just make a glowing setup and maybe get some glow in the dark sticker strips to stick on the deck or obstacles.

I'm riding some old closeup metal core wheels that are molded and really bumpy.
Would they be better than them?

The wheels actually aren't THAT bad. They aren't perfect, but for the price they're worth it. And what they lack in performance, they make up in value. They're definantly a step up from metal cores.

But if i were you, i'd wait and buy jace wheels once they come back in stock.

if you have to use a cheap china wheel - i have had pretty good results with broken knuckle fingerboards on ebay. their single bearing wheels have been the most round that ive personaly used - and work good for the $5 price tag they cost.

but
dont expect any good results from china bearing wheels. they are rock hard and slippery and a generaly ugly boxy shape to them...

me personaly - im ordering some sesh savers from no comply for $18 ish
cause im tired of low quality molded china bearing wheels on my setup
