Skateboard wheels are usually made up of a rubber-like material named urethane and are available in different sizes and hardness depending on their uses. The hardness and size of the wheels normally affects the speed, smoothness of the skateboard ride, and its handling. Normal sizes of skateboard wheels usually range from 52 mm to 60 mm and some include a set of built-in bearings. The dimension and the hardness rating of the wheel are usually embossed or printed on its side. The hardness of the wheels can be measured using a durometer. The softest wheels are rated at about 75a and the hardest available are at 99a.

Skateboard wheels are attached to the truck s axles with a hex bolt and a spacer in between. Different skateboard wheels are available in this Skatebiz online skate store or skate shop. The wheels for street skateboard riders are relatively smoother and designed for tricks in streets like ollies and some flips. The hardest skateboard wheels are specifically designed for use in vert riding that requires several jumping and landing on ramps. The slalom wheels are made much bigger than the vert wheels for greater and longer endurance even at top speeds. These are specifically designed for slalom racing and are made softer for a better grip in making turns. The wheels for longboard riding or transporting are slightly larger than the slalom wheels and are made with hard plastic cores.
