| Hey guys,
A few weeks ago I placed an order for a pair of Oak wheels off the website, knowing that it might take a while to ship from Portugal. After doing a big more research, I determined that Oak wheels aren't made to fit tdlb trucks anyways. At least I dont think so. Then I determined that the money wasn't even subtracted from my bank account.
So here I am in the market for wheels for my tdlb trucks. I've never really used anything but the china plastic bearing wheels. I don't ride concrete too much, so anything smooth would be great. What do you guys think? Thanks |

You just have to use some pivot cups as spacers and maybe some super glue for the nut. Grand Wheels are pretty awesome and I think they work with TDLB trucks. You can always get some Flatface wheels too if you don't want to order wheels out of the country. |

| backless dual bearing wheels (i.e. flatface g7-g7.1's) are for sure the best wheels for tdlb's, tho it doesnt seem like flatface sells them anymore besides for one set. back before black river trucks were around, flatface had a BUNCH of different sets of dual bearing wheels, unfortunately theyve been on their way out  |

| Oaks do work for TDLB trucks. But you'll have to use a spacer as @skatemaster231 stated or washers so the inside of the wheels doesn't get chewed up by the rough metal truck. But yea, they work, I've had a pair of RV1 and RV2 on TDLB. |

Thanks for the insight. I bought a pair of white RV2s and some spacers, but I'm not a huge fan of the oaks grippiness, and am considering selling or trading them. |

For how new they are and how hard they are to get hands on in the US, I'm shooting for $30 shipped. Let me know if this ever interests you |
