I have an X5 with 243 frame (UFS) and 80mm wheels. I want to increase the wheel size to 90 mm. What are my options? I was thinking of buying a frame similar to the one used in X7 (273) I could not find it in the internet (sold alone). I saw in one of the posts IW staff recommending Luigino frame for one of the members. is there anything cheeper.
I also want to buy some good 90 mm wheels which vendor do you recommend for outdoors. Thanks in advance

The Rollerblade Fusion X5 have a max wheel size of 90mm, so your best bet is to purchase a skate with a larger frame. If you like Rollerblade's Urban Inline Skates then I recommend the Rollerblade RB10. Has stability and support like the model you currently own. We are selling them for $229. As far as wheels, the set that comes with the RB10's work great, but for more speed I recommend Explore Triumph 90mm wheels. They are made from natural urethane – which are the most consistent with grip, roll and wear (very durable).

Hope this helps!
