The XCELL™ RS-1 XT™ is part of the new XT series - a wider-than-usual wheel that still fits all the popular tires like Evolve 7" and Kenda 8" tires...and everything in between. And XT wheels are made for our new RS series, flat-profile tires, at 165mmx62mm.
Check out this video review from a rider:
Measuring 53mm between the rims, this wide wheel has to be seen to be believed. It increases the contact patch as well as the overall track width of the board, resulting in a very confidence-inspiring ride and incredible grip.
Precision CNC Milled and Lathed from 7075-T6 aluminum, these dynamic wheels are extremely strong (and weigh in around 250 grams). Custom simulation studies for stress, as well as real-world testing, modification, refinement, and improvement, have resulted in the ultimate wheels for premium e-skate super sleds.
In plastic, two-part wheels, the bearings are in different halves of the wheel, resulting in misaligned bearings, which causes wheel wobble and increased rolling resistance. Plastic, two-part wheels simply do not have the high accuracy to compete in high speed road courses.
XCELL™ wheels, as a core feature, contain both critical wheel bearings in a single piece of massively strong aerospace aluminum, compressing an aluminum spacer.
This setup increases accuracy of the bearings with respect to not only the shaft, but to each other – resulting in longer, better rolls and truer spin - along with an elimination of wobble present in lower quality plastics. You can feel the difference.
The accuracy of these wheels must be felt in person to appreciate the quality.
FINISH:
XCELL™ wheels are milled of 7075-T6 Aluminum (far stronger than 6001), lathed, and then smoothed and anodized for an outstanding appearance. Choose an anodized color like blue, red, or black. And now, we offer a Nickel-Plated option for those who want the ultimate shine and scratch-resistant finish. This finish option is far more resistant to scratches over anodizing.
BEARINGS:
To maximize performance, choose from top-quality Japanese NSK or SKF steel , or Acer Ceramic (true silicon nitride balls) bearings. Or bring your own. The size needed is 6001 series, and 8 are required, along with four 22.4mm long aluminum spacers.
SCREWS:
For the XT series wheels, incredibly strong alloy steel screws are included. All screws enter from the back side, and anchor into the front half of the wheel (a feature now being copied by competitors). Unlike plastic wheels, changing all of the tires just went from being a nightmare to a 10 minute operation - for all four wheels!
FOR KALY GEAR DRIVES:
We now offer anadapter kitthat allows all XCELL™ wheels to run on Kaly 2.0, XL40, and XL50 gear drives. This offers an incredible amount of customization of your Kaly board by opening up a ton of wheel options previously unavailable. For Kaly applications, make sure to select the 10mm bearing option.
XCELL™ 72T PULLEYS:
A stock Lacroix pulley is fully compatible with Land-Surf™ XCELL™ wheels.
But we also have produced the most accurate, high-quality 72T pulley available for the Nazare and Lonestar. The main feature of this precision pulley is that it “keys” into the back of the XCELL™ wheel line, creating a more integrated, stronger interface between wheel and pulley.
In black, the pulley is alsohard-anodized, which is a much tougher finish than the standard anodizing that comes on the stock pulley. The result is much less wear and tear from the belt, and a pulley than maintains it’s gear teeth longer without becoming “sharp toothed”.
XCELL™ ANODIZED M12 NUTS:
These center-lock inspired wheel nuts are awesome M12 nuts that come in 6 anodized colors. All with a lower profile than the stock nylock nuts for a sleek accent to any wheel. Available for Hypertrucks as well as the Matrix II axles as found on the Prototipo® and Jaws® Works with any wheel.
PERFORMANCE:
Enjoy riding with your XCELL™ wheels and feel their sharper handling and true spin. The newfound precision of your board will be something you feel with every turn, and every stretch of smooth tarmac!

NOTE: Make sure to specify in the comments at checkout which model of board you have if it's a Lacroix Nazare/Lonestar (and whether pulley drive or Falcon GEAR DRIVE, Jaws, or Prototipo. This is to ensure the correct screw length is supplied.
Lacroix Falcon Gear Drives require a 1mm longer spacer, which is provided with wheel purchase on request.
3D Servisas "Fat Boy" trucks and gear drive will also work with the correct screws and axle spacer. You can use M4x30mm flat top screws, 7mm pully standoffs, and a .5mm axle spacer for correct fit.
Make sure to specify that you are using a specific brand or type of drive, or if you are using the stock pulleys.
2) Length of both bearings and the middle 22.4mm spacer: 38.4mm (You need about 2" of axle to run these). 3) Screw pattern is MBS-based. Front wheels use M4x30 screws, rears use M4x50 screws (depending on application, pulley, or gear drive used)
Brought these wheels to fit my Carbon Evolve, in writing this I'm so close to achieving it. The wheels look fantastic and visibly wider, they are a point of difference, perfect machining and precision. I was going for low key and brought black but now seeing them wish I had gone for a color.

Been meaning to
I've been lusting after the XCell wheels for a while now. Figured it's the start of summer lets do it in style. Pictures and reviews don't do them justice. Extremely high quality, highly precise wheels. There's three things I feels are shortcomings to E-Skates. Remotes, tires and wheels. All of those are borrowed from other things. XCells are built for E-Skates and are purpose built. Now address the other things and I'll be there. Highly recommended.

One of the best wheels on the market! I highly recommend it to anyone in the esk8 community!
I bought two sets of platys for the xr and two for the GT, haven’t installed them all yet but have installed them on my XRV, I’m having engagement issues but I’m using the thin sticky feet up front and am going to attempt Gripples, I’m a size 11 and have had engagement issues with a previous set also, I ordered these sets without grip so I could try something different. I still love the footpads and of corse the company, just wanted to let everyone know there may be issues but they can be resolved, just be patient. This is a very quality product here
Just what I was looking for. The peace of mind to know you can ride out a nose dive. The Fangs just saved me tonight when my GT took a sudden stop, the fangs rolled and I rode out the dive. A must for your board.
I returned Order # 45646 as instructed (by Matt) to be exchanged for Fangs GT that I really need. I have still never received my GT Fangs and if they are not in the mail by now then please, Please refund my $121.67 so I can re-order the proper Fangs for my GT.
Thank You.
Respectfully Yours;

Product looks great installed and the idea of having a clean solution to any potential nosedive is well worth the cost. Solid construction and easy installation. The only criticism I have is that the fang doesn’t have a formed curvature to match the rail installation. It requires some flexing to **** in the front screws. Once installed, it’s a non-issue, I’m hoping the required bending doesn’t sacrifice structural integrity.
The FANGS GT are meant to conform to the curl of the rails of the GT boards once the screws are tight. It will not affect the strong, unbreakable texture of the Fangs.
The installation was seamless and worked really well. Even with the coaster, it has less body than a stock pintx bumper for those that seek uniformity in the presention…but the insurance plan for a possible nosedive is worth the sacrifice of plastic and teeth.
