The wheel furthest back on my roller blades (both feet) wore out and is done so thought it would be a good time to buy some wheels. These ones did the job and they were the ones that came with the skates so nothing special.
I keep reading that people should get at least 82a wheels or something in terms of hardness because this is for roller hockey on pavement or ashfault. But I also see that you get less grip as the wheel gets harder? I'm not the most powerful skater right now and don't have a huge push-off at the moment so what would you guys recommend in terms of brand/wheels?
I'm not aware of any store that sells them (here in Mississauga, On anyways) so I'd also appreciate a recommendation on some Canadian shop which sells wheels and doesn't charge too much for them or for shipping.
EDIT: Should I go for something like this? 72 mm at 83A
