anything in the 90's should be good most skates come with 88A or 89A but if you can track down some 55mm 90A then you should be solid.

If you shread alot in the street, you are gonna need harder wheels. I would go 90's or above. It will cut down on your expense of having to change out wheels every 2 weeks. Plus, lets face it, popping out bearings sucks too!

If you ride street alot, and skate like I do, there is no getting around it! You are gonna go through wheels. Nature of the beast brah. I always feel weird when I change out wheels. It takes me a couple days to wear em down to where they skate like I like em.

Brand names are vast in the wheel world. Personally, I use Eulogy, but it depends on your preference.
