Agreed .. I posted a link to show you how to clean the bearings .. but if they are C-Clip, then forget it.

Then I guess - that'll be useless .. you can't really clean c-Clips, unless you're really really really careful.

Even then, they then to break when you try to get at the bearing.

Its actually getting worse. The problems is that the outer rubber of the wheel is starting to come away from the gray hard plastic part in the center. I was going to try and call Heelys today and see if maybe I got a bad wheel.

Wheel see...

This reminds me of the day I got my Evo's.

They were covered in this sort of plastic casing, kinda hard to describe. The stuff lasted for one day before it peeled off. Anyone know what that was?

Heelys uses a interior core instead of a solid wheel. Early versions of the wheel could strip under severe strain.

This doesn't happen (in general) if you're under 150lbs. Or unless you put extra G's from pumping vert.

Call Heelys Customer Service
1-866-HEELING

And let them know you had a wheel that stripped from the core. They've been pretty good about replacing them.

I called them this morning and I actually got to talk to a REAL LIVE PERSON. Smile I didn't know they even exsisted anymore. It was great, she answered all my questions and was very nice.

Here's the deal. Heelys "Hands off" (not sure if this is the right term) thier warranty to the retailer, in this case MMMMMMMMMMMMMervyns. So if I take them into Mervyns and work up some tears and a sad story about how these are for my dying mother, they may give me new wheels. Wheel see when I get off work.

The saga continues....

They were mean to me! It went like this:
Me: Can you like make me some Abec 7 white wheels? Oh fats!
Meany: Uhmmm, no
Me: That's not fair! You made size 22 shoes for Shaq! We are all people and should all be treated equally
Meany: . . . . . . . . (phone hangs up)
