The general rule for wheels is as follows:

- 180mm, 10", and Up Truck = 65mm and up

Deck Style:
Boards with wheel wells, wheel cutouts, or flared wheel wells have more clearance to avoid wheel bite. Because of this, these styles can roll with larger wheels.

Riser size:
Risers can add extra clearance for larger wheels. The larger the riser, the larger the wheel you can add.
