So I was looking on Google for wheels and came acrossed a old cached site and then found them elsewhere too but of course a old inventory listing for the old heelys website and found these very interesting heely wheels!

I don't know any information of these besides what was provided in the pictures and the diamond cut wheels come in clear, pink, and blue. I also don't know when these were released or if they are mega or fats but they do look very similar to the official megaverts that heelys where there was no plastic core to the wheels that they were using for either the pro team or something as they were never official commercially sold.

I WI Der how fast the speed performance wheels are if they are like Bins Swiss Ceramic speed wise or even the Bons Reds.

Anyways I am mineblown over these and definitely want some!

Anyone ever seen these before or have more info on these?!?! 😳🤯😱

Take my information with a gain of salt, I was 11 years old at the time and hardly remember but I vaguely do remember those models being sold in the "accessories" part of the heelys shop.

Speed performance had ABEC 7 bearings but they were still just generic.

The diamond cut are just rumble wheels.

So I'm sure what they were showing in the pic for the diamond cut wheels were the small mega rumbles not the medium or large as they don't look that wide. The speed performance ones were megas too?

But yeah I am remembering the old heelys site and just don't remember if I saw these or not. I actually liked the older site then this new one.

Emma is right (HI Emma/Connor!!)

Those first set are Megaverts. They are REQUIRED for pumping otherwise stock Heelys wheels can take the pressure and will literally fall apart mid-session. They were design to withstand the high pressure of pumping on halfpipes. But the bearing on them were terrible. We always had to replace them with better bearings (which wasn’t trivial).

The other wheels were another design, which actually PRECEDED the Rumbles (so Emma gets a half star on that one). They aren’t good for much because you don’t want reduced surface area at a skatepark. And they are too hard to ride on the street (wicked painful vibrations from the road).

Good luck!
