On the description, it says 'not for use with any other trucks', why not? haha, will it mess them up or something?

Haha, I was just wondering happy I'm not really planning on buying, and I already have brts, and I'm probably just gonna get brr ed winklers soon shocked
I was just wondering, cause its a wheel, how could it not work on standard trucks? O.o

If you're badass enough you could take a pair of chinas and just shape them to the same shape BRT and then they would probably work perfecty!

There have been a few cases of death reported due to using the Flatface bearing Wheels - BRR Edition G5 on trucks that are not of the Blackriver models. The warning is added to discourage and prevent any dangerous and potentially fatal misuse of the wheels. Hope this clears things up.

there is a little problem with the winks on china wide and it is that the hole on the back only just fits over the hangar and can get lodged on it and can kill the wheels!!

yeah dont forget brr ed wheels are designed like skateboard wheels so they can be used with trucks that are designed like skateboard trucks. The bearing is nearly centralized in the wheel so if you were to use chinerchrucks the flat part where the axle begins will sometimes get stuck in the larger hole at the back of the wheels

i've used them on regular wide trucks before, they're different slightly than other single bearing wheels, but not bad, just you should use the little tiny spacer things to make them work the best

Yeah try Nocomply microwashers or cut small slivers of pivot cup material to go between the truck and the wheel.
