We measured the ride surface of these at a skinny 19.5mm, so they should still be relatively easy to get sideways and slide if you’re committed enough – but be aware that sliding softer wheels with a ride surface that small could result in flat spots, so it’s not necessarily recommended!
Also, like SML’s softer Coffee Cruisers, the core on these still intrudes a fair bit into the wheel, so flanged spacers like the ones built into the Tekton XT bearings won’t fit; stick with the Tekton Lites or Biltins instead.
Other than that, these are, for all intents and purposes, a “normal” street wheel – just softer.
