Hey guys, I am thinking I want to upgrade to the most realistic trucks on the market, BRT's, I am on the fence about getting mean green trucks, or super silvers. Super silvers go with any set up, but in the future( about 2-3 weeks) I'll be getting a BW Togui Yeti graphic. I think green would look best on that, and I can deal with off colors for a few weeks. What are your thoughts on this?

Should have said this in the actual post, but I also can't decide between turqoise, or tan ff brr edition wheels

Honestly, I would just stick with silver, so you won't have to worry about it in the future, and silver brt's are just so beautiful!

green. Since it's my favorite color

and turquoise. But I recommend Oaks also.

I agree about them looking great. The worst thing would be me not liking the silver, and painting them green, or getting dump trucks and tuning them

Oaks would require modification, and I am terrified of messing up and destroying my trucks or wheels. I'm sure it's simple, but you never know

Oaks are brr edition wheels. I don't own brts though, but they're made for brts. I think that's the type of modification you're talking about? Turning them into brr editions?

Well if they are BRR editon then I might try them. I meant I heard you sometimes have to glue the nut for them to work, and I don't have a steady hand, and might get it on the bearing.

Just checked and the wheels look great! And are an ok price, on a budget FF BRR or winkler brr editions are the way to go, and those are great wheels also

Oak wheels are around the same price as FF brt ed. wheels. They last longer and are much better for outdoors.

Get Silver BRts, they grind much smoother and last longer.

I personally would say get Ytrucks if you're on a budget. Why? They're less expensive, and have a higher quality in my opinion.

*I've tried both BRTs and Ytrucks, and both Oak wheels and FF brt ed. wheels. I also own all four.

I would go with ytrucks man.

My friend has both bra trucks and ytrucks i got to say trucks are the best

I think you should get a set of silver Brt's or a set of Y-Trucks. They are almost the same good

Aww comon Gunner that signature haha

ytrucks are like 3 euros cheaper now they dont come with a tool and you need the Ykey.

for me it's all about brts, and I think FF brr eds are nicer than oaks but that's also my preference. depends what you like

As for colour, I personally love silver but if you want colour go for it, because it you ever get bored of the colour you can just gently sand the colour off with sandpaper or something.

Whaaaaaaaat!? That sucks

I have Y trucks, and love them. I want to also try BRT's. I checked the price in a conversion currency website and oaks are 20 more expensive, with shipping. FF costs 2.50 or some where around there for me. It also takes about 2 days to finish the order.
Thanks for the help guys. This all will help me in my decision. Seeing as I already have y trucks, I do like to have completely different setups. The board I travel with is a BW, with china trucks and wheels, but my main setup has y trucks and y wheels.

Kerry they now sell the old tools too..for like.. 3€
i'd recommend ytrucks, they are just as good as brt's AND basically all wheels fit them, also i'd recommend oaks, they are better imo, plus they are more durable and they have Mucho Feeling and they fit perfectly on brt's and ytrucks

Yeah, I have Ytrucks, and love them, it's just that I like the locking nut system. I think Ytrucks should have them, but I got mine used at R13, so they might be missing. I also like that they snap back into place, and you can keep them as loose as you want.

Ytrucks have lock nuts..they come with th trucks

Cool. Might get another set, rather than drop 70 dollars.

From where you got the 3€??
35+10 =45€ if you go for the ykey or
35+3=38€ if you go for L-keys

or you can buy a computer key, which comes with all sizes of torx keys, allen keys, phillips keys and flathead keys for 5 euro, that is better than any tool and made from vanadium, an almost unbreakable form of steel

Yes you could do that, or you can be a respectable fingerboarder and buy from a company that supports the fingerboarding scene instead of just filling their pockets with cash
