| I've been using 29s on my 32, it's fine.
People are way too concerned about having a perfect setup. Alex McMillan did almost everything on a TechDeck, and fucking owned. |

| I have 1 pair of TD longboard trucks. They are on my Old School Primitive.
I have quite a few 32mm decks and 29mm trucks seem to work better for me than the TD longboard ones. The TD longboard trucks seems to be just a bit too wide (since they are like 33.3mm) and make it harder to flip.
29mm china trucks can easily be made 30-31mm by setting up your wheels right.
People ride 31mm decks and those can "only" be set up with 29mm trucks, so i don't really see the problem in riding 32's with 29's. |

| I don't prefer it but I have done it before. 32mm deck with chinas. It was fine. I don't prefer it though, I prefer 32mm trucks on 32mm decks purely for aesthetics. |

Same here, when i brought my brts i got the wide ones to look better than spending the same amunt on 29mm ones. Imo if you ride oaks you can have wide trucks on a 31mm deck |

| i like both. it all depends on the weight of the deck. if the deck is on the heavy side, i might use 29s. if the deck is super light, i gotta use wides. |

| I like the width of the truck axle to match the width of the deck like on my skateboard setup.. Anything narrower just feels weird and wobbly to me. To each his own I guess, so it doesnt mean you are doing anything wrong - do what feels right for you! |

| I like the edges of the wheels and deck to match, or be within 1mm difference in width. Don't do this: |
