Wondering if anyone has installed a set of "X" Wheels on their 2016 / 2017 Apex XTX? I had a set on my previous 2010 Apex LTX, and found them to be (as advertised) beneficial to the longevity of the slides. Just looking for comments on experience with this newer skid frame, either with the OEM wheels, or aftermarket replacement (larger) wheels.

I put a extra set of OEM wheels on my 2016 this year. What track length do you have?

I have the 16 Apex xtx 1.75 I upgraded to the 135 mm from the factory 129-130mm wheels, also installed DuPont slides before I took the machine home from the dealer, this seemed to fix the Yamaha eat the slides issue with other Yamaha sleds I had in the past.Wondering if anyone has installed a set of "X" Wheels on their 2016 / 2017 Apex XTX?

I have a 16 vector xtx, no need for bigger wheels.
The sliders don't have a wear issue like on the previous skids.
