| This happens sometimes, it's easy to fix, but if you don't trust yourself you can send them in and we'll replace them. Sometimes when the bearings are put into the wheels a little burr of the wheel material is pushed into the spot between the bearing and back wall, and sometimes they get overlooked. You can use an x-acto knife to cut the little burr away, which is what I'd do if I got a wheel like that. Otherwise, send an email and ask about getting a replacement for that wheel, or however many are messed up. Sorry about that! |

| Considering how expensive bearings/wheels are, I'd just contact them. Their customer service is really good so they should send you a replacement if you send yours back. IMO, it's not worth trying to fix yourself as you won't be able to return it if you mess it up! |
