Like Link said the wheel touches the deck while steering and locks the inner wheel in a turn. Very bad because that’s where your weight is and the skateboard makes a sudden stop and throws you of. Try it first without rolling and simulate the lean in a turn to check for clearance. This problem occurs due to large wheels. I think you have to add some rise pads between the trucks and the deck too. Unexpected wheelbite is a crash guarantee!

I know for a fact that with both 180 paris and caliber trucks with 83 mm wheels you will give you wheel bite. I know this from experience cause I had this setup on one of my skatedecks to pratice ollieing on the bigger wheels. Also be careful when near curbs cause if one of the protruding wheels rubs up against a curb u will fall off. I too know this from experience. Made me want to get wheel shields lol XD

I’ll try standing still to make sure they not touching. 
if so I’ll get smaller wheels.
They make wheel shields for 97mm wheels?
I was kinda joking but they really are a cool! They will completely eliminate wheel bite and my problem where I rubbed up against a curb (also to be fair a was avoiding a car so I wasnt looking where I was going). As stated on their website they only work with 80 mm wheels and smaller. http://wheelshields.com/products/wheel-shields-metal
Longhairedboy uses the Bustin yoface skate deck on one of his builds and he had 83mm wheels.

Aww don’t be like that. But I understand. Can’t wait to see what you 
have. I know I can be a show off at

Love the DIY third hand tool thing. They had a sale at Fry’s and it was $5 bucks btw, might think about grabbing one next time you’re around.

PARALLEL = DANGEROUS. @XvDarkVAngelvX parallel chargers ruined a set of my lipos. They don’t balance the cells effectively because it reads 2 cells, finds the average, and charges based on that. Get a series charging adapter and then cut the innermost red wire (I ruined another set by not cutting the red wire). The reason we cut the wire is because if not, then the + and - wires cause a short and you’ll get that not-so-beautiful black smoke.
