| winklers all day everyday. best shapes, best sizes, best colours (white go figure) and the best material, with just the right amount of screech'ness...after you have tried the rest, ride the best |

| dont get me wrong substance are great, especially the ones you have kerry, that material is badass....its the only substance wheel to have that material to date....the y truck edition are the older sub material....so no screech.....
i loved my subs 2010 brt eds, but on the first day the bearings slipped on them, to the point you ride, do a few tricks, and the wheels has locked over the hanger, so the board wont roll....after putting up with this after every trick, ALL the wheels were like this in about a week.........maybe my set was a bad set...i dunno.....
i would have loved them if they didn't do this, and i know you say your set is ok, so ill just put it down to my set......
a set of winks would never do that......not any of my 5 sets anyway. |

| after having ridden mine for 8 months (maybe more, don't remember exactly), they've had no problems, they have this weird 'click' that you can move the wheel left or right about 0.25mm each way on the bearing. Whether its to the left or the right, it spins exactly the same though, and doesn't effect performance at all. I dunno why yours were soo bad.. We shall see what substance 2011 holds eh? If I like winklers more, substance will always be a close second for me. Amazing wheels with some really interesting materials. |

| yeah substance is a second for me too.....my old material subs ive not had no problems with..thats the very first quartz brr eds, (the ones with washers in) but i modded them to duals and they have been great, and the new ones ive just got the quartz 2010 y truck eds, they have been great too, i love them, but they are the same material as the original quartz....i was expecting them to be the same material as the 2010 brr eds.....it seems stupid why they are not......
id have to mention NCD wheels too as those are pretty great also, but compared to winks and subs, they are further down my list |

| Its odd they're not the same.. Maybe he ran out of one material? : o And how did I forget to put nocos on the list? silly me Added now. My roll 9s are great wheels, if they were a bit softer they'd be all I'd use. |
