Powell Peralta Df Nano Rat 52mm 97A Off-White Wheels | Set of 4 - Key Questions Answered
What is this wheel best for on a skateboard?
It’s best for street and park skating where you want quick speed, clean pop, and predictable slides. The 52mm size and 97A durometer keep it responsive without feeling overly harsh.
Is a 52mm, 97A wheel a good choice for newer skaters?
Yes, if you want a wheel that feels controlled and not too slippery. The 30mm contact patch adds a bit of stability, which can help build confidence on ledges, flatground, and smaller park features.
How does the DF shape change the ride feel?
The DF shape is made for consistent release when you break into a slide. That gives you a more predictable feel than a softer, grippier wheel when you’re managing speed in tricks or lines.
Would this work better than softer wheels for park concrete?
Yes, if you want more speed and a cleaner slide than a softer wheel gives. A 97A wheel rolls faster and feels less sticky on smooth park surfaces, while still staying usable on normal street spots.
What should I expect from the size compared with larger wheels?
Expect quicker acceleration and a more agile feel than larger wheels. At 52mm, it stays compact enough for technical skating while still giving enough surface to feel stable underfoot.

Skater since 1974, pool pipe and skatepark, I've ridden it all but these Carver C7 trucks were a revelation. Best for slow speed styling and generally hanging some art on mellow terrain.
Definitely a kick and worth trying.

I am loving this board so far! I reached out to LBUSA to get some help finding the right board for me. They were more than helpful and the process of getting help, ordering the board, and then delivery was flawless. I am excited with my purchase and am thrilled with the customer service along the way. Top notch!

Well built and super fun to skate on. Wheels work well on imperfect pavement and sidewalk cracks. Bearings are legit.

Kiddo got this board for Christmas, for us to ride on Route 66. Board is good quality. No name trucks, but they function well for her. She likes the Punked Speed Series wheels. We did put reds super bearings in it. The factory bearings do not roll near as well. For the price, for a complete, it is well worth it. This is our second Punked Longboard, and both have served their purpose. I would buy from this company, and Vendor again, without question.

Trippy assym setup with Rogue ZM1's and assorted wheels really rips for downhill! I also hope to run cones with it soon.
