I liked your other video on these wheels too keep it up! Your videos are great quality for someone with that many subscribers I bet you'll make it in the RU-vid world with content like this
So I had the 86a clouds for a minute but they lacked a certain hardness ...got the 92a clouds and I feel like they are the best wheels ever i fly through the streets and the skatepark
Nhs is giving me a replacement wheels but idk if i should get ojs super juice again sinced they chunked the first day or get the rictas clouds . i dont like how the rictas clouds look tho !
Depends on how tight or loose your trucks are, and how low/high your trucks are. With 56mm 92a clouds, I was using em on 52mm Thunder trucks and didn’t get wheelbite, but I had hard bushings and a tight truck setting. I prefer a higher truck, so I often add the 1/8” riser and then you’re in the clear from wheelbite. I’m running the 55mm 86a clouds on those same Thunders but with the soft stock bushings & no riser as a quick experiment- and so far so good, surprisingly- but I can wheelbite if I land with all my pressure on one side, but not from turning (so far). Getting new risers and hardware today, so the experiment is ending- but you can make it work with the right bushing/tightness/truck setup, if you don’t have risers. If you ride Indy standards or Venture Hi, you’ll have no problem handling a 56mm wheel (w/o a riser)
@@solidbluebrian thanks for this comment. I have the same wheels 55MM 86A’s paired w/ 148 Thunder lights. Do you think I’ll be needing risers? I haven’t experienced wheelbite just yet and most likely from my tight truck setting lol. Would love your opinion
@@9Os_kid thos have the forged baseplate right? 1mm lower, if you have the stock bushings, I don’t think you can really get it tight enough to avoid the wheel-bite. You could try their 95/96a bushings and that will give you a little more height & squashing resistance so you have less chance of wheel-bite, but still keep some of the turning fluidity. Or you could go with their 100a bushings and then you won’t need a riser, & then you don’t have to crank your truck tight. You just put it to factory default setting and you are good to go. With the harder bushings, the harder it is, the slower and less responsive it will be. Sower to turn, slower to respond to your flip trick. The harder it is, the more upright and taller the truck will feel, and as a result of it sitting more upright, it will push your wheelbase out more. Especially because you won’t need to crank your trucks tight. So if you skate the 100a bushings on your Thunder, it makes the wheelbase wider, with a taller truck feel - which can be awesome on a mellow deck. But if you have steep kicks, it takes a lit of effort pop, you can’t pop from the pocket as easy, and I tend to get more ghost pop. Another option is to do the medium or hard bones bushings, and keep the stock thunder washers on. It’ll keep the truck from being too low and changing the geometry too much. It’ll also stabilize the turn and prevent it from turning too much. Sometimes I even put the Bones washer in between the stock thunder washer and the bottom bushing for a tiny bit extra height. If you add a riser with a harder bushings, it’ll feel kind of normal because you have more leverage pushing down on the bushings due to the extra height.
