Best Scooter Wheel By Size Chart 

What size pro scooter wheels should I get?

This is always a tough question because most parts aren’t compatible with every size wheel. And even if your scooter is compatible with all size wheels, do you have the spacers that came with it so you can change sizes?

Now if that question alone stresses you out, don’t worry. All our contact info is at the bottom of this page and we would absolutely love to help you figure that out. There are only two common variables to wheel size which makes it pretty easy for us to help you. The two variable are wheel width and wheel diameter

• Scooter Wheel Width

There are technically a bunch of wheel width available, some companies decide to do slightly unique sizing which really doesn't make a difference on 99% of scooters because there is some wiggle room. So when we are talking about wheel width, we are really talking about the width of the wheel core, which will either be 24mm or 30mm. The most common size is 24mm but many riders prefer the grip and stability of the 30mm wheels. Simply put, this has to do with how fat the wheels are. 24mm wheels will typically be lighter while 30mm wheels will be slightly heavier. We’ve seen brands do 26mm wheels, but really that is a 24mm wheel core with a 26mm outer urethane and will most likely fit any pro scooter that can fit 24mm wide wheels.

• Scooter Wheel Diameter

Wheel diameter is just the height of the wheel. A lower wheel diameter can result in less material being used and therefore a lower wheel weight. Larger wheel diameters have the benefit of faster travel speeds. This property comes from a really cool physics principle. When talking about pro scooter wheel diameter there are three main sizes and a third size that's growing in popularity. The first wheel diameter size is 100mm and it is becoming less and less popular as time goes on. 100mm wheels are commonly found on scooters in big box stores and tend to make for slower travel speeds, we aren’t really sure why these are still a thing. The absolute most popular pro scooter wheel diameter is 110mm because it offers a good travel speed and can be made relatively light weight. Chances are you have or will ride this wheel size at some point. Finally 120mm is becoming more and more popular in the park riding scene. 120mm wheels offer the fastest travel speed which is great when you are trying to quickly pick up speed to go up a large ramp and get maximum air. The down side with 120mm wheels is that they are a little bigger and therefore a little heavier, but with new engineering methods this problem is becoming negligible. Now we said there is a wheel size that is rapidly growing in popularity, and that's the 115mm wheel. The Street riding community has absolutely been loving 115mm wheels because they travel at a great speed, seem to be more balanced when riding a wider wheel width, and keeps your center of gravity right where you want it for street scooter tricks.

*Now that you know the pros and cons of each wheel size, we definitely recommend making sure you double check what size width and diameter wheels you can ride so you know which section to look at next

For Street riders we honestly recommend going with 110mm x 24mm wheels or some nice chunky 30mm wide wheels. But we understand there are a lot of hybrid riders who want that faster travel speed and can’t fit 30mm wide wheels, so this section is for you guys! If we were going to run 120mm x 24mm wheels on a street set up, we would probably have to go with the Envy Gape Core Wheels. These wheels are pretty dang durable and look great while offering that faster travel speed. Gap Core wheels come on the extremely popular Envy Prodigy Complete so many riders have put these wheels to the test without any complaints. Check out the Envy Gap Core Wheels.

Just like in the section above, we normally wouldn’t recommend 30mm wheels for park riders. But once again, we love our hybrid riders and know a lot of you are doing park style scooter tricks at parks with a little rougher terrain or even out and about on obstacles in your everyday life on the streets or in a plaza. Luckily for you guys Envy just recently released its Tri Bearing Wheel. The Envy Tri Bearing wheel is super cool, especially with it’s unique integrated tread design just like a car would have.

Right now there just aren’t a ton of options for good 120mm x 30mm wheels for street riders. We are definitely seeing more available every day, but a lot of riders who are interested in this larger wheel size tend to opt for a size of wheel called “12 Standard” which we will get to later. As it stands we once again have to recommend the Envy Tri Bearing Wheel. 120mm diameter is a little overkill for the average street rider, you don’t need the extra speed as much when doing street tricks and sometimes going into a street trick too fast can be a little sketchy. Nonetheless, if you are looking for 120mm x 30mm wheels for street scooter riding the Envy Tri Bearing Wheels are a great option. The machined inner core on these wheels are super durable and the wide urethane will give you plenty of traction and stability to land any of your tricks. Check them out here Envy Tri Bearing Wheel.

What Is A “12 Standard” Wheel?

12 Standard is a wheel size far more popular in Europe than in the United States. If we had to put a reason to it, we would have to say that it is much more common to find uneven cobblestone pathways in Europe and that for these uneven surfaces you would want to have a larger wheel to lower your chances of your wheel getting stuck in a crack. Plus the added stability of the wide wheel set probably helps a lot too on those uneven surfaces. The measurements of a 12 Standard wheel are 125mm x 30mm which is a rather larger wheel size. Now we’ve said repeatedly that large wheel diameters are less popular for street riders. So why are 12 Standard wheels only ever rode by street riders? The 12 in the name 12 Standard is the size of the bearing, 12mm. Typically scooter wheels use 8mm bearings like skateboards. The larger size of the 12 Standard bearing creates a slower travel speed that counteracts the larger wheel diameter and leads to a more balanced travel speed. In the United States our sidewalks are pretty smooth with minimal large cracks so this larger wheel size isn’t all that necessary. Plus there are a ton of skateboarders and skate shops here that sell 8mm bearings which makes it super convenient if you ever want to change your bearings in a set of normal scooter wheels.
