Inline skate wheels

Diameter: check your frame first

Buy wheels in a diameter your frame will take. Bigger ones won’t fit between the axles or will rub against the boot. The maximum size is given in the skate specifications and is often printed on the frame.

Diameter	Use
72–76 mm	kids’ skates, slalom, small sizes
80 mm	city, freeskate, learning
84–90 mm	fitness, longer routes
100–125 mm	speed skating and three-wheel skates

Hardness

85A is a safe choice for tarmac and paving stones. Softer wheels (82A–83A) grip better and dampen vibration, but wear faster. Harder ones (86A–88A) wear more slowly and slide into a controlled skid more easily, which heavier and more technical skaters appreciate.

How many and what about bearings

For four-wheel skates you need eight wheels, for three-wheel skates six. You can transfer the bearings and spacers from your old wheels if they’re in good condition.

Rotate new wheels every 20–30 hours of skating so they wear evenly — the rotation pattern and the other rules are in the guide how to choose inline skate wheels. If a wheel spins worse after the change, check the spacers.

Frequently asked questions

What wheel hardness for skating in the city?

85A. It’s a compromise between grip on tarmac and durability; lighter skaters can choose 83A–84A.

Can I fit 84 mm wheels to skates with 80 mm wheels?

Only if the frame allows it. Check the maximum diameter in the skate specifications; a frame designed for 4 × 80 mm usually won’t take bigger wheels.

When should I replace my skate wheels?

When, despite rotation, they’re clearly worn down on one side, the polyurethane cracks or there’s little of it left over the hub. Regular rotation significantly extends the life of a set.

How do I rotate my skate wheels?

Swap the first with the third and the second with the fourth, and at the same time swap them between the left and right skate. Do it every 20–30 hours of skating.

Are light-up wheels slower?

Slightly, because the generator in the hub creates resistance. They also need their own magnetic spacer, which a regular one can’t replace.
