| Hey Guys, So I have decided to buy a set of BRR trucks. I am thinking in about 2 weeks, or when my new package from BRR arrives. But I am wondering, Should I get FF BRR ED A's Or Winkler BRR Edition
Do the poll, and let me know! Or should I get some Substances?

| All the above!! Seriously, I have all of em and it would be hard as hell to pick one set out of those...As far as feel, the quartz take that, and the neos feel damn near identical to the quartz...as far as durability AND smoothness, the winks take the cake. My vote would go like this...
Winks quartz/neos a's
I think I clicked on the quartz on the poll, but whatev lol... |

| Ok....
I have a ton of Nollie's coming in, so I may try those. I don't think they will work, but I am not getting the trucks for a little while! But Nollie's are soooooo good! |

| quartz, they're a perfect wheel for me. Perform amazingly, make a nice noise when you powerslide, are the right balance between hard and soft that they work everywhere like a fucking dream, and to top it all off, they're the most beautiful material. Hold them up to the sun on a nice day and watch the light shine through the semi transparentness.. AHH. Just buy them. From jerome imo, he was good with my shipping, so, yea. |

| Ok thanks! I think I may just by both on the same day, and since the trucks will be coming from Germany, it will take a week or two, so they will come around the same day... |

| i love my wink brr ed, my ff brr ed 'a' and my brr ed quartz 2010...........but for me the best wheel out of those has been the winks by far.....they dont win any awards for looks or colour, but if you want a wheel that will last forever and the bearings wont come lose this is the one i would pick...... first choice for me would have been substance quartz 2010 for sure, but within a week of using them ALL the bearings came lose, so im not best pleased about that....i still use them, but have to keep popping the bearings into place every minute or so the ff 'a' have been good to me so far, but im not so much a fan of the colour, they are nice, but you cannot beat white, black, or quartz coloured wheels.... as the the ff brr ed normal white ones, i probably wouldnt recommend them.....minr the bearings fall out, and wont stay in...... ultimatley my wheels get used, but for me id have winks all day long because i know they wont let me down, + i love the screech they make, like 2010 quartz's do......if the quartz's bearings stayed in i would 100% pick them over winks, but they didnt for me, which is why id have winkler brr eds |

| but i guess its debatable though miles, i think kerrys quartz's non of the bearings have come lose, and i dont know about tmgs, but his wheels never get a hammering even the other older winklers will work good on brts, my big daddies do, and tmg says his other winks do too....like work without locking up........the 'a's are sweet, but you have to colour code them with a setup, and with white you cannot go wrong...... i wish my quartz 2010 the bearings didnt come lose....... ....i have the older brr ed quartz too, but i dont have any bearings for them, with those the back lof the wheel has a plate, so there is no way the bearing can come out, but with the plate it causes friction and the wheels wont spin as good as if it wasnt their |

Do you think the Blue Magic's would work? I am really digging the color!
I guess you could always dye the BRR ed's |
