Been looking at 87/88 freestylers recently and a lot of em seemed to come with 6 spoke tuffs, anyone got any thoughts on them? Good? Bad? Indifferent?
Cheers,

I like them. Look great on the Mongoose Decade :daumenhoch:
-
Good wheels, came stock on Skyway Streetsylers. Make a nice change from Tuff 2’s
-
Came with my decade and had a good 3 days in bleach followed by the usual wd40 soaking. rode them down the skate park without a peep out of em. Not bad for 30 year old platic :daumenhoch:

I'n my experience they are reasonably heavy & you wont be able to move them on when the time comes.
Very few people have the love for them or use them in their builds.
-
Look good on certain bikes....and as usual people want a premium price for them when your trying to buy some? and tell you there not worth f**k all when you try to sell them! :knuppel2:
-
Used to hate them & always associated them with cheaper inferior mags (bit like seeing 'adidas' 4-stripes), now not bothered.
5 spokes look better IMO, less like cartwheels,
24" tuffs though Thumbs down
-
They have their place. High end was always 5 spoke but some great brands used them on their mid range bikes. Look good on the appropriate bike. I tried finding some for a build a couple of years ago and couldn't find any!

ugly and wrong..... "nono"

Nope never liked the 6 spoke , just wrong sorry
-
never ever understood them! 5 spokes works best.
