What should I buy?

What should I buy?

TLDR; I need: bushings, bearings, wheels and in the short future some trucks

I skateboarded for 10 years, and I treated myself to my first pair of independents ever (crazy right) just before I took about a 10 year hiatus.

I picked up skateboarding again and I love it, but they’re constantly pulling to one side and the back truck was constantly going much looser than the front which is my main gripe. I have never had this happen before and independents are supposed to be the best right? Maybe I can blame the 10 year old bushings perhaps.

I would love to buy Indy titanium’s, or even the normal hollows, but that’s money I’d rather not spend atm and not sure I really need to.

What should I do?

My bearings are tired and my wheels are just basic as anything and also tired. I always had bones reds as a go to.

I’ve seen I can get slappy pre-broken in standard bushings for £10 which is good, but I’ve seen people rate bones bushings highly, however I don’t wanna spend too much on bushing when It’s a big chuck I could just put towards new trucks.

Wheels, I’d love to get some spitfires to try them for the first time ever. What’re the best value for money for a standard mix of park/street?

Thanks 🙏🏼
