| I mean you don't have to listen to me, but what I do is take a q tip and some rubbing alcohol and a small cup of oil pop out the barring and clean them with the alcohol then rub both side after with the oil then place them back in the wheel. you could give that a try. |

5 feet would be more acceptable than 5cm actually. If you went back that far, it would just like you are rolling switch back to the starting position. |

Something like $35-40 lol, but I don't think brrs are that worth it, you should get some wides and tune them out instead, I only still have my brrs because they look good and make my wheels have an orgamsic feeling as they roll on the bearing haha, but I got mine in a trade. I just wouldn't buy brrs tbh |

| i wouldn't use washers on any wides with single bearing wheels.....imo its best to use dual bearing wheels with wides as the backs wont wear out, but ive found and many others that if you use washers with the wheels it just wears them out quicker....so no i wouldn't use washers.... just check your wides b4 you put your wheels on though...its common sense....if there are some sharp bits on the edges where the wheels sit, just rub them with a bit of sandpaper and your good to go |

| what ross said, BUT as wides are soo long axled, I find washers help there be less wobble on the wheels with single and dual bearings, so I use them on both. But it doesn't make that much difference tbh. |

| BUT. the best thing to use if the axles are really long are the NCD micro washers id recommend them to everyone as they work great with wides, (if thats your issue) and they're great for pushing the wheels out on BRT's or Y's for over 30mm decks, as they fit perfectly inside the back of the wheel. |

| yeah, my roll 9's came with washers, but i don't know it they are the micro washers as they don't seem so thin and they don't fit on my wides with out the wheel not spinning. thanks guys i'll check my trucks for sharp edges. |

| I would like to contribute that I use both wheel washers and micro washers on my roll9s. You dont need to use the wheel washers though. |
