Good Points: I have skated Grind King trucks for the last seven years now. They are the best as far as im concerned. All the above posts seem to be very ignorant about the quality of their trucks. Grind King uses much better materials than most other truck companies. Not to mention the people at Grind King stand behind the warranty. They have replaced my trucks twice, when i only broke kingpins. They are also great for grinds, you dont have to worry about hanging up on your king pin
Bad Points: Stock Bushings suck, get new ones (bones hardcore- hard bushings are the best)Most people have trouble keeping them tight? I have no idea why. if they dont stay tight just get a new nut. Problem Solved.People say they are not very durable. My GK6s are ground to the axle and still work fine.As for the weight, the only trucks i know of lighter than these are the titian ti-lites which are garbage. These are lighter than any other truck of the same size. Weigh them yourself if you dont believe me.
General comments: Great trucks, worth every penny.

Awsome trucks had mine for a year light durable and are primo for ledges. I would buy another set of GKs if there were no independent or thunders the bad thing about gks is they dont tighten they are loose but you soon get used to it and there are all gravy but seriously get indys cause they arent heavy last way longer than any truck out there.

I bought Grind King trucks after a year ago(when i start skate) and my best friend bought destructo.the deference is huge....gk trucks loosen out so i buy new hard bushings but i realised that the problem is from the creapy kingpin...so today i bought thunder trucks witch are light than grindking, cheap, stiff and really good.so if you want 100% value for money,perfect trucks then buy thunder high..; )

I decided to replace my Destructo Mids with some Grind king Lows mainly because I had the money at the time. This purchase was definitely one of the worst buys ive ever made. These trucks are rubbish. They are really loose when you first get them. Then I tightened them a little bit and they came loose straight away. My Destructos have never let me down and I highly recommend them to Grind kings.

If you want to go out and buy new skateboard trucks, I'd suggest buying some different ones, but Grind Kings do have their good points
* key kingpin
*light
*strong
but to be honest I think the bad points are a bit too much lol
Before this I had tensors. They were really good and lasted me 3 years.
The only reason I bought new trucks is because I had the money.

I've had grind kings for a while now and don't see any problem with them. When you buy them they normally have soft bushings.

I recently had destuctos and switched to grind kings. I had a pair of destructos, and they worked very well with sturdy bushings and tough material and design. They are somewhat heavy though, not really heavy, but heavier than GKs, and since I was having issues with tre flips, I thought I might invest in the king of grinds. Basically every comment before me described GKs, and though they king pin can rub against the board, and the bushings can break down, it depends on how you use them. The king ...

If you look at the history of the company they are responsible for most of the innovations in trucks we all called standard equipment.

I have two sets of GK trucks and they rock tight or loose. I had to add riser, i noticed Kingpin tends to bottom out on the deck. After adding the risers all was good again, remember, hard bushings for these trucks seem to work best for me.

They're light but after the first day of using them, they're looser then anything! They are not worth spending your money on! I wouldnt buy any Grind Kings again!

The Grind King are the lightest trucks I have ever had and I do not have to worry about my bolt hitting when I am grinding. The only problem is that if you grind a lot that they will wear down a little

The Grind King will not stay tight and loosens so quickly after being tightened that I took the trucks off my board after one week of use and threw them in the bottom of the closet. I ended up going back to a cheap pair of trucks that I pad 25 bucks for that skate a lot better than these 50 dollar trucks that to expensive for a bad product.

The best trucks I've ever had, I used the same pair of Grind King trucks for FOUR years with NO problems whatsoever! Way better than Phantom 2 trucks, don't buy those.

I love these trucks just because unlike the other Grind King trucks the king pins dont snap (at least mine haven't) and they don't get loose after 1 day of skating they are really light and the pictures are amazing I love these trucks I LOVE THEM!!
