I'm curious if anyone here's tried using 76mm wheels on the 80mm standard Tour skates like the code carbon or cobalt q's.

Any thoughts on how it'd affect maneuverability, acceleration and how much of an impact it'd have on top speed?

Hi,

Guys on my team does as he had the hummer mounted on a Graf boot.

Slight drop in top speed I think, but slightly sharper turns. If you play on a small rink may be worth the trade off.

I personally think the right wheel hardness/quality set up is more key to speed.
