My new FAVORITE ❤️ wheels!
After seeing the Foamies on YouTube, I had to get them! They are the largest urethane wheels on the market at 120mm and I love the purple transparent color. The two things that I was a little skeptical about, before purchasing the wheels, was the foam core and the wheel tread; would it really help? Been on these for a week and here are my impressions:· The size of the wheels will reduce torque, but my top speed has definitely increased.· The tread is great! I found that on rougher roads the wheel tread helped reduce vibration and helped with gripping the road better.· Compared to the Rough Stuff wheels, Slick Revolution decided to make the Foamies softer which I feel was better for absorbing vibration from the road.· The foam core adds to the rebound during deep turns. I’m able to lean much deeper than with my ABEC 11 Flywheels.Overall, these have replaced my ABEC 11 Flywheels as my favorite wheels! They are definitely different enough where you’re not just buying a larger wheel. The wheel tread, foam core, size, & soft wheel durometer all contribute to such a smooth and responsive ride. If you have the money but are not quite ready for pneumatic tires this is honestly the next best thing. If I was to score them out of 5, I wouldn’t hesitate to give them a high 5!

AWESOME wheels!!!
These wheels are AWESOME! I have them installed on a 4WD Revel Kit bolt-on electric skateboard and they are performing great on road and off-road. Although when riding on roads the contact patch seems small they are actually super sticky in turns, due to the fact that they are using a really good urethane formula. Off-roading on smooth trails is a DREAM with these! Really dig them, and the size is perfect. Great job with these wheels Slick guys!

Great for carving, less great for range.
Amazing grip, the beveled conture of these wheels allow you to carve much deeper than with regular hard edged thane. Surprisingly light considering the density, my only real gripe is how thirsty these things are, saw probably a 20% range reduction over my 97mm ABECs but arguably the trade off in ride comfort was worth it.

Excellent wheels for Esk8
I bought these wheels to improve my boats performance on rough terrain. They definitely meet that goal. These will ride right over hard packed dirt and sand, medium size sidewalk cracks, train track crossings, and tactile pavement. They also reduced road vibrations by about 5 - 10%.That being said, they did significantly reduce my range, about 10% at low speeds, and 5% at high speeds. They also wear more on the motor wheels, so I’m rotating my wheels about every two weeks.

The perfect middle ground
These are that perfect middle ground filling the void between traditional PU wheels and Pneumatics. They offer an unbelievable amount of grip on the road and are quite predictable when they are starting to let go. The Foamies also absorb blows from sketchy road quite well. These wheels will leave you confident when shredding the streets. Just be mindful that they are still urethane and do not like water.The tread pattern would make you think these wheels wouldn’t ride very smooth but so far in my experience it has been hardly noticeable rather than a nice hum on the road coming from under you. And they take speed well! I had them at 40+ on my DIY with no issue.

I will only he using Foamies from now on.
Phenomenal product. You will never go back to the stock Boosted Board wheels again! The ride is so smooth. The top speed of the Boosted Board Stealth is 24mph. With these Foamies the speed increases to 29mph.

Soild deign. To me at lest reduces some of the bumps in the road or sidewalks while riding. Over all good bye.
