I ordered ITP T-9 Pro Series black wheels and Sand Stars for mine.
For the fronts:
22x8x10 Sand Stars
10x5 ITP T-9 Pro Series black wheels
For the rear:
20x11x9 Sand Stars
9x8 ITP T-9 Pro Series black wheels
Stock front is 10x5.5 on 22x7x10, and 9x8 on 20x10x9 in the rear.
Is this good? I can still modify if necessary! Thanks.

IMO the ITP's and Sandstars is way to heavy a combo. I would run Blue lables and some none molded paddles. I know that will cost a little more but you will save a significant amount of weight.

I went to Chaparrel and weighed both wheels. The weight is minimal...something like 1/4-1/2 pound.
The tires were about the same. Not bad for a stronger, more durable wheel and tire IMO.

The guy who answered when I called wouldn't let me speak with Joe so I didn't buy from them. When I told him that I specifically wanted to speak with Joe, he responded by insisting that he could help me. I called three times and the same guy answered.

Theres some skat trac edges for sale on here, $100 with rims, the rims are yamaha pattern, but you can easily sell the rims and buy some new zuki bolt pattern rims. These paddles would do very well.
