Wheel Diameter = 60mm Wheel Width = 44mm Durometer/Hardness = 85A Wheel Shape = Rat Bone Wheel Formula = Natural The Rat Bones wheel was actually a "Rollerbones" product. Rumor has it that while visiting the company one day, Steve Caballero saw the wheels and wanted to try them out on his skateboard. He liked them. The wheels were much lighter than Cubics and Mini Cubics which were eventually phased out in favor the newly dubbed "Rat Bones." Review: sweet wheels - Love these. Been riding Rat Bones for years. 60/85a is perfect all around. And the black goes with my new Indy Blackouts. Review: "Sick" - That is what a kid 30 years my junior said when he tried my board that had these. I even compared them on smooth asphalt with my real old-school Sims B-52s with Swiss bearings and they are much faster! The smaller wheels on most modern skateboards make popping ollie style tricks easier, but for practically everything else, these rule! And these are made in the USA too. Update 1/20/2011: I setup 3 skateboards. My Rat Bones board (Powell Daggers deck with Indy 169's), a new school board with Indy 139's and nice Bones STF 53MM wheels, and a Sector 9 Longboard: 1. New School - Easiest to pop Ollies and do modern kick-flip style tricks. The small, lightweight Bones STF wheels really work well here. Skating the downhill parking lot into the skate park, it is good for about 10MPH all the way down. I complete the frontside turn at the bottom and basically stop at the small drainage ditch before entering the park. Kind of boring. 2. Rat Bones: Start heading down the downhill parking lot. It is a cold day and I have the park all to myself. As my speed increases I can start to feel the windchill. About halfway down I'm going a little faster than the new school board. Cool. Wait a second! I am still going faster - too fast to jump off and I still got a way to go before making the turn. I think I am in trouble. I hit the turn still accelerating and thinking I am about to eat it really bad. A hard longboard style frontside turn slows me enough that I can ollie over the ditch and into the park and up the volcano. The Rat Bones are also faster in every part of the concrete park, especially the pool and half-pipe. 3. Longboard - Sector 9 boards and wheels are also made in the US like Powell decks, Rat Bones and Indy trucks. It is a longboard - well suited for high speed carving and a smooth ride. The Sector 9 wheels are smoother than the Rat Bones but slightly slower. Bottom line: For most types of general riding, these wheels are Da Bomb! Get a set. You might have to use 1/4" risers to avoid wheel bite. Also, be careful the first time you skate something that you are used to in new school wheels. You might find yourself going a lot faster! ## Features - Wheel Diameter = 60mm - Wheel Width = 44mm - Durometer/Hardness = 85A - Wheel Shape = RAT BONE - Country of Origin: USA ## Images ![Rat Bones Skateboard Wheels 60mm 85a - Black (4 pack) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61jMsfPYyAL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ sweet wheels *by M***N on March 6, 2026* Love these.
