Wheels!

[witchfingers]

I looked a little and couldn't find a thread about wheels. I had a wheel self detonate on my 100cc size bird this last weekend. No hard landings. I believe that most of the arf's now come with these wheels that to me, appear to be rejects from the barbie doll corvette factory! Before I buy a set of new 4 inch wheels I would like to hear what you guys have had the best luck with over the years. I land on grass mostly. But occasionally fly at smooth covered runways. Thanks for your input.

My flywheelz only got bout 20 flights off grass no paved runway, and they are already showing bad wear. They do look good but doubt I'd purchase another set.
Whiterose is badazz, but they also have badazz price. TOp of the line wheels, even if he is supporting AzzHats drama site. If your running pants, and not worried about the BLING sullivan sky-lites, are nice.
@witchfingers what ya putting them on?

I tried the Fly Wheelz. Horrible! Tires wore out rapidly and they have plastic bushings. Tires rolled off rims.

I'm now exclusively running Air-man wheels on my planes. Billet aluminum, sealed ball bearings on both sides of hub, good solid tires and they come with axels. I'm running the 4 3/8 wheels in place of 4" factory. Love them.

Either dubro lite or Sullivan lite. Best wear for the price. White rose if you want Bling and have a need to show off the rims.

Exactly. If you have pants then the bling wheels are pretty much hidden so why bother spending the $.

White rose are best, last forever. Second best option I've found is Sullivan skylite with aluminum rims. They last longer than pretty much anything else out there I've found. I almost tried the Flywheelz but have seen the tires fall off and wear out on others that have tried them. No thanks.
