Some wheels may not be deeply offset enough so you may have to use one or more [[Axle Washers]] to help push your wheels out, so your axle doesn't stick out. You may also need to adjust where the wheels are in relation to the edge of the deck for best stability in [[Railstand|rail]]. The wheels should never really extend past the edge of the board. Placing the wheels even with the board will lessen deck drag and help with [[Rail Whip]]s, but the ideal, or most flexible, placement should be somewhere around 1/8" to 1/4" narrower than the [[Deck]]. It is all a matter of preference, but this range will usually provide the greatest stability. Just try some different settings and see which configuration works best for you. | |||
