Lightweight vs. Regular

What are you thoughts on the two types of wheels?

I haven't had good luck with the lightweight wheels, they always seem to crack on me the first run. Don't really think they are worth the extra cash for less.

What's your experiences?

Only run Lightweight if you can keep it off the boards and out of trouble. I suggest running regulars unless you really can stay out of trouble. else you are looking at a hefty tire bill :lol:

That is my fear. I'm afraid that tires are going to cost me a fortune with the way I drive

Those damn boards just jump right out in front of me all the time. :shock:

Regular is what you want to run then. You will only see a difference in the tire weights once your skills improve. I barely see a difference myself lol

So does that mean you suck at driving? haha, j/k.
Thanks for the pointers.

I agree with Binks, Lightweights bust way to easy for my likings.
