When running certain combinations of trucks and wheels sometimes it becomes necessary to use riser pads to avoid βwheel biteβ. Donβt know what βwheel biteβ is? Well consider yourself lucky. Wheel bite is what happens when you turn your board and your wheel touches the deck. If you do this hard enough the wheel will βbiteβ and stop rolling. This often means that you go flying off your board. So if youβre running bigger wheels make sure to read through this chart. While it might look like homework itβs definitely more fun than hitting the pavement!
