Compatible Components
The Toy Machine New Fists 004 8.0" complete is designed for 7.75" to 8.25" wide decks. For alternative trucks and wheels with similar performance, consider the following from Toy Machine and Foundation:
Toy Machine:
- Ruckus 5.25 Trucks: Wider for enhanced stability on 8.0" to 8.25" decks, ideal for park skating.
- Toy Machine 54mm 99A Wheels: Slightly larger for smoother rolls, maintaining speed on street setups.
Foundation:
- Core 5.0 Trucks: Lightweight aluminum trucks for agile turns on 7.75" to 8.0" decks.
- Foundation 52mm 99A Wheels: Hard wheels for fast slides, compatible with street and park skating.
General Guideline: For 7.75" to 8.25" decks like the New Fists 004, 5.0 to 5.25 trucks and 50-54mm wheels with 95A to 99A durometers are optimal. The Ruckus 5.0 trucks and 52mm 99A wheels provide balanced performance, while wider trucks or larger wheels enhance stability or speed. Use 1/8" risers with wheels over 52mm to prevent wheelbite.
Wheel and Truck Compatibility
The Toy Machine New Fists 004 8.0" complete pairs well with the following wheels and trucks for optimal performance:
- Powell Peralta SSF Snakes 66mm 75A: Soft and grippy for smoother cruising, requires 1/4" risers to prevent wheelbite on 8.0" decks.
- Orangatang In Heat 70mm 77A: Firmer for faster slides, requires 1/4" risers to prevent wheelbite on 8.0" decks.
- Independent 139 Stage 11 Trucks: Durable mid-profile trucks for versatile street and park skating, compatible with 7.75" to 8.25" decks.
General Guideline: Choose 5.0 to 5.25 trucks for stability on 8.0" decks. Pair with 50-70mm wheels (95A-99A for street, 75A-80A for cruising); use 1/8" to 1/4" risers with wheels over 52mm to avoid wheelbite. High-quality bearings (e.g., Bones Reds) boost roll speed for street and park skating. Avoid rough terrain, as softer wheels may wear on abrasive surfaces.
