Skyway Tuffs would strugle to take the abuse of riding now days. Maybe ok on the front if your riding trails (and are smooth).

I think your forgetting how hard people used to actually ride, on sketchy narrow DIY quarter pipes too. You see all the ballsy young riders doing mad big drops etc on 36h super light wheels, im sure a Skyway is plenty strong enough for the average poser/bmxer

True, but, most of that riding is landing into transitions. They were fine then for people pushing it at the time. BMX is a lot more brutal now though. A tuff wheel wouldn't cope with big 360s down steps over and over again.

admittedly they would probably struggle to take todays tricks but i have seen top riders riding them up front in dig bmx mag
for street riding and average trickery they'll be fine have had the original pair for 5 years before i heard them go crack but still ridable no question hairline split barely visible and heck you've still got 4 spokes left -

you don't many posers on bmx man, that shit is for the hardcore. The posers would be riding fixed on those horrible vigorelli frames and a hed 3, because aerospokes are not cool now.
Wondering about getting one of these for my bmx becuase they look cool. But they look heavy and weak. Any one know if there any good for anything except cruising.
Thanks
