Instead of buying risers, you could buy harder bushings, bones are known to be pretty good, never tried them though. Or just tighten the trucks and skate until your existing bushings actually brake, that's what I would do. Some skaters do ride trucks this loose, so it's also something you could give a shot. I can make my wheels touch if I really try. Here's Daewon Song's crazy setup: [VIDEO] . When he says wheel bite
