| These wheels are the best i have ever tried!
Very similar to the feel of 2010 BRT ed. Quartz, but dual bearing. |

| Haha, just noticed this. Yep, the wheels do fit perfectly on BRR's as they have a centralised duel bearing system going on. They grip perfectly but don't tug when your doing blunt or lip slides. I had to keep a set for my new Pop deck Forgot to add, I do ship oversea's by the way |

They do not fit BRT's. At least not with the nut locking to the thread. The bearings being centralized does not do anything to the width of the bearings. But it makes the pressure on the wheels more even, to give a better ride. They fit perfectly on Ytrucks though, and the combination gives the setup an amazing feeling. I agree with your description of the grip! They basically grip when you want them to grip and slide when you want them to slide. |

| My set of Substance Flaked Edition wheels does not fit my set of Blackriver trucks.
I don't know if anyone else has experience with the combination. |

| You know what, I just tried tightening a nut on a BRR hanger with one on and your right, the bolt doesn't tighten to the end of the thread, Sorry about that I'll sort out the description now. |

| You got me in doubt Pete, cause i've heard other people say that they were supposed to fit BRT's. Thought I'd drop a picture to make more people realize how good these wheels look |

| They'll fit fine on BRTs, but you'll have to glue the nut. It's the same as with the FF dual bearing wheels. I imagine anyway, I might be wrong. |

| FF dual bearing wheels are a nightmare on BRTs, with or without glue.

| Excuse my ignorance, but how can these dual bearing wheels fit on Yellowwood Trucks, but not fit on Blackriver Trucks?
How can a wheel not fit on a freaking truck axle?
All you have to do is put the wheel on and then put the screw on right?
Oh, the wheels look freaking sweet to the max! |

| BRTs have a shorter axle. Means they fit single bearing wheels perfectly, where a single bearing wheel on YTrucks flaps around without washers to hold it in place. |

| The 2 bearings take up a little more room than a single bearing would.. Ytrucks have an axle a little longer thus letting you screw a nut in securely.
Brts do not have any extra space except to fit single bearings So when you try to put the nut on with dual bearings in , the nuts barely hang on and fall off

| Thanks, I finally get it.
You would think that both companies would make different versions so they you could have single or dual bearing wheels and not have to worry about stuff. |
