| whatsup guys, i am looking at getting some new wheels to replace my Winkler signatures looking for something to grip on my glass desk. just wondering if i should go with oak RV2 or YdualT wheels i understand that Ys are a bit bigger. im just curious as to performance between the two. if anyone has any experience with both wheels let me know your thoughts and whatnot. thanks |

| iv never tryed ywheels, but iv been riding oaks for 3 years, and their by fare my favorite wheels, but i find the oaks look more realistic then ywheels if your shootin for that, and their super nice to ride on like ever surface!! |

| Oaks are much gripper than my y2's, but the y2's are a bit softer. Both sets of wheels are amazing, can't go wrong. |

| Both of them will grip really well on glass, but like Danny said above, Oaks are more grippy. I personally think ywheels have a much smoother ride though |

Estevan makes a good point here, Y's are much smoother straight out of the packet. Oaks sometimes have tiny deformities that take a while to wear out- You don't feel them on wood or concrete but glass will feel them. Y's are smooth straight away, especially on smoother surfaces. |

| i really appreciate all the feed back! im still on the fence about which to get it kind of depends on what i do, im actually debating getting a whole new setup with some BRTs. im thinking i want a heavier setup and if i do that i will probably get some oaks. if i dont i will most likely get the duals to go with my Y-trucks. still dont like the thought of them not being able to go on BRTs if i do get some down the road. they are the same price so i may just go with the grippier Oaks. idk -.- im bad at making decisions |

yea i was thinking about getting the ywheels since i do have the ytrucks and they are basically the only trucks that accept dual bearings without having to do some jankiness to the trucks to be able to use them. if i order a whole new setup ill order both ywheels for my current setup and oaks to go on the BRTs i am honestly thinking i want a heavier setup tho. my flips are out of control sometimes but im not sure if thats because of the winkler wheels sliding so much on this glass or because the ytrucks + g15 is such a light setup. again thank you everyone for all of the feedback im surprised i havent gotten a bunch of "this question again" responses |

| duuuuuuude! GET THE BRTs WITH THE RV2s!!!! Im feeling you on that heavy setup! I like to run my board that way and there is no comparison to the brt oak combo. Nothing against Ys I have some and I dig them for other reasons but I know that heavy feeling your talking about and brt is the only way to go. TRUST |

| if the surface is glass urethane wheels suck from my experience, they squeak really loud and just stop with powerslides. |
