the difference in wheels

[quick15]

i have a question about all the derby wheels on the market. In every ones experience do certain wheels run better than others. Is there an advantage. The reason I ask this is we recently ran in an awans race with that type of wheel and previously was all BSA. The speeds were well exactly the the same. the only difference was the awans wheels were very quite compared to the BSA which were very loud. The pine car wheels were very loud also. So is there truly an advantage? Just wanted some input from those of you that I know are looking for that edge and to answer a my curious mind. thanks.

i have never used awana wheels, but have been told that they are made from a softer plastic.

[font="times new roman, times, serif"]+1. And I would add that I have used just about every wheel you can get over the years to include the ones right out of the kit. This year I bought wheels from DD4H and all I can say is I will be a repeat customer of his...

The bsa wheels are faster than the awana wheels with all things equal.
