If you roll with a purchase with any of these brands, you won’t be disappointed…a good set of skateboard wheels will last at least a couple of years.

- Spitfire
- Bones
- Ricta

This Year’s Best Skateboard Wheels
1. Pig Skateboard Wheels
Hey, who doesn’t like a Pig? 
Pig have been making some of the best skateboard wheels for decades.
Our pick?
The Pig Natural Head, that are priced around $30 depending on what deals are on.
2. Spitfire Skateboard Wheels
My #1 pick for the best skateboard wheels is Spitfire; I just love them. 
And it’s not just me. There’s a lot of online reviews praising Spitfire skate wheels.
I like the Spitfire Bighead in white, but they do them in black too.
Prices sit in the $20-40 depending on wheel type and size.
3. Bones Skateboard Wheels
If you’ve got any type of board that needs a set of custom wheels, Bones has you covered. 
I can’t say I’m a massive fan of the design, but they are top-quality, no doubt.
The Bones 100s are the most popular in their range, and come in a tonne of sizes and colours.
Expect to pay around $30 for a set of 4.
4. Ricta Skateboard Wheels
Most of Ricta’s skateboard wheels are of fairly minimalist design, and I like them. 
However, if you’re looking for something cool and unique, they’ve got something in their range just for you.
Check out their Crystal Clouds.
They are see-through and definitely the best skateboard wheels in their range.
I was expecting them to be a little more expensive, given the crazy design.
But, they’re priced at around the same as top skateboard wheels brands like Spitfire and Pig, at around $30.
5. Mini-Logo Skateboard Wheels
Mini-Logo are going to be your first pick if you’re on a tight budget and you’re looking for cheap wheels. You will literally not find anything better for the price.
Check out their C-Cut wheels.
They look basic, but you’ll be able to grab them for less than $25, which makes them around 30% cheaper than all the other wheels on the market today.
