Rollerex VXT500 Inline Skate Wheels (8 Wheels w/Bearings, spacers and washers)

These wheels will not fit a Hilo Hockey boot set up for junior sizes. They are to big for the front 2 wheels so we bought 68mm Labeda Asphalt wheels for the front two wheels on each skate. They claim these are hard wheels but after only 3 weeks they are shredded and the Labeda wheels which are on the front and should show the most wear do not show any wear at all. These wheels are a bit cheaper but so is the quality. If you’re going to be using them on pavement don’t waste your money. I should probably add that we live in Michigan and the weather has not been the greatest so they have not been used a whole lot. These wheels were 72mm and after only 3 weeks they are considerably smaller than the 68mm Labeda’s and they are no longer smooth.

One of the questions was: What is the inner diameter of the ball bearings? And the answer was 6mm. Well, it is not so. It actually is about 8.5mm. So, it does not fit the bolts at all. Hence, I'm returning these.

My kids love to go skating around the neighborhood and I had worn down my wheels almost to the rims. My skates are nice, but not top of the line. I wanted to find some wheels that would last on the asphalt of our neighborhood but also let me keep up with my kids. Most everything I found was really expensive - even these were a little bit more pricey than what I was looking to spend. However, they seem to be pretty durable so far - I've put probably close to 30 miles on them at this point. They are showing signs of wear, obviously, but nothing more than expected. They also run nice and smooth. At first I was a little concerned when I was installing them because they didn't spin very well on the bearings. Once you start riding around on them, though, they break in quickly and run nicely.

Last time I bought separate wheels, spacers and bearings but I got a mismatch so the wheels always clicked every time I shifted my weight. (Probably needed a washer in there to make up the slack, but I just dealt with it.)From now on I will only purchase all-in-one wheel sets like this. I really appreciate the ease of taking them straight from box to my skates and I’m on the road again. I love the bright colors. These aren’t for racers but they are just what I need. I’m skating for fitness so I like that they make me work.

I have old Rollerblade skates that I love and have searched high and low for the right replacement wheels. These work fine, even though they are smaller than the original wheels. This means I have to work harder to skate, but that's ok. They are labelled "for kids" (I think), so I knew that. I'm pleased that they work as well as they do! I'm not sure about their durability, compared to the original wheels they replaced, and that's why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5.

Needed to replace wheels on a very ancient pair of Bauer roller hockey skates. They don't come with the wheel bolts that hold the wheels to the skates. It has everything else that you need. They fit the skates and work well. I got these so that my kid can skate at the local park and the wheels look like they can take the beating.

I am so fast with these on my old blades I am jamming like they where band new. Bought some old blades from goodwill the wheels where shot so I got these and now I am unstoppable literally I go really really really fast like zoom zoom

Got these yesterday to replace the stock wheels and bearings on my 12+ year old skates, which have spent the last 5 or so years in storage. Figured even if they are cheap they have to be better than the noisy, grinding set I was using. Well, I haven't taken them outside yet, but the new wheels have about 1/5th or less of the spin of my old rundown set...
