If you are having a problem w/your slides replace your blocks that hold the wheels onto the rails,as they are 2.5mm lower once mounted to the rails,and it is easy,as this will allwo you to run longer on bare ice w/out slides melting,and they are only $85.00 you get 6 blocks and screws to mount them where your old ones were,now you still have to reuse your old wheels that are coming apart,but this is just about how to take some pressure off the slides themselfes,they work good.

Yes they do,if you have a dealer who is replacing them with larger 5.325 say,that would work,but at 20-30 bucks per wheel if you have to pay out of pocket,its cheaper to do this,and if we still keep blowing out wheels you will still get yammi to pay for them.studdog said:mnmsnowbeast, don't the oversized wheels on the oem blocks do the same? studdog

I bought Maximum Performances 6 premium ureathane oversized wheels to replace oem. They work great. Super soft rubber very quiet. I don't trust the Yammy wheels. studdog

How are you supposed to drill a hole that is 2.5mm lower when you will basically be in the same hole. Got any more directions.

Freak the blocks come all drilled you only have to drill two holes thru the rails,only on the two wheels that are the closest to the rail bend in front by your limiter strap,as the two wheels in the rear most location use the slots that the rails already have milled into them,and the two center wheels dont use any extra holes for stability as they have more area to hold on to,all you do is remove all 6 wheels and stock blocks,install the front new block,and run the stock bolt thru and secure in place for drilling the bottom hole,think its a 5/16 bolt it uses or maybe 3/8 they give instructions that are easy to use,drill the hole install the bolt and secure it,take out the stock bolt so you can put your stock wheel back in place and reinstall your 14mm stock hex bolt and resecure it,as now the wheel is roughly .100 thousands lower,so it rides on the track more than before,do the same to the other side,and finish up with last 4 wheels and go have fun on the ice!!!SledFreak said:How are you supposed to drill a hole that is 2.5mm lower when you will basically be in the same hole.
