I think even with the newer Tuffs that you have it will look better, especially with the black Comp III's on.

Ok just cos you asked nicely .   I went out tonight and tried  some combos on but i still like the spokes lol. ;) ;D

With white alloy hub tuffs & haro tyres just cos they were sittin with tyres on already







Took the blue haro tyres off n fitted some rainbow lablel black comp 3's






Now the Graphite Tuffs with some rainbow label black comp 3's

 




Then back on the spokeys again ;)

 





So there you go , you wanted tuffs , you got tuffs ;) ;D ;D.   opinions welcomed as always

Still a lovely bike no matter which wheels.

If you put the white skyways on it then personally I think it should be in the Freestyle section as racers didn't use white Skyways.
Black Skyway's look the part on the bike, especially with the black tyres, that is how the racers ran the bikes.

Nice to see the different combos  :)

The Graphs or spokes look best for me personally  :daumenhoch:

Very nice  :coolsmiley:

Sean's bang on the money



Neil it does look lots better with the white Tuffs  than spokes ,,proper 80's freestyle  and era correct   :smitten: :4_17_5:



but for looks alone it has to be the black graphites , it's the best colour combo, all goes together so right   :4_17_5:

no 1 choice would be the blue spokes...

a very close no 2 choice would be the black graph's...

then miles away in a third place would be the white skyways which kill it to me and makes the bike look cheap...


just my opinion... :daumenhoch:

Run it how you want mate.

Forget "era" correct.  In that era we all swapped out parts like crazy.

Should be called "catalogue" correct.

Personally I would use the wheels made from metal ;)
