Are the wheels that come on these skates for outdoor?

You can use the wheels on these skates outdoors on smooth asphalt or concrete however, once they are used outdoors, most skating rinks do not allow them to be used on the wood flooring afterwards.

Yes, I only use them outdoors. They are really good for all types of floors

Yes they are outdoor wheels. My daughter skates outside everyday after school and they have held up nicely.

Hmmm my kids don't really skate outside because our driveway is too rough, but I don't see why you couldn't. I like these skates a lot, actually I have a pair for both of my daughters and myself because I liked them so much. They take them to the rink or skate around the house. If we have a smoother driveway, I'm sure they would skate outside with them too.

I'm sorry, they are not constructed for outdoor use. Thanks for the question. ted

Absolutely! My kids both used these skates. They are well made and can be used indoors or outdoors!

The wheels have grooves in them, I used them outdoors. Also, because of these grooves, they don't move as fast as smooth wheels would. These skates are men's shoe sizes. I can wear a men's size 7 (but in women's shoes I always have to wear an 8 or 9). Since these are men's shoe sizes, I ordered a size 7 and they fit perfectly.

Depends on what you want them for. They're not truly functional as skates, and the lock on the wheels doesn't work well. If you really want your grandson to skate, you might want to pony up for real skates. But for a relatively inexpensive starter skate, its OK.

These are to my knowledge outdoor ones only. They use SPD clips if I remember correctly.

Yes. Great wheels. Replaced the little plastic wheels on my kayak carrier. Much better! These are less expensive than the same wheels at Lowes.

Ours aren't smooth either but once our daughter got the hang of maneuvering around cracks she does great! Great outdoor skates! I recommend getting an extra set of wheels like we did so she can use them at indoor rinks!

yes, but again, wheels are plastic so pedaling is difficult (forward & reverse) on grass. They slip.

I think they are both but i only use indoors. They are for beginners and by no means a "Speed" skate. The wheels are very wide and have a strong grip on them. I think they would be better for outdoor. I agree that they are hard to skate indoors with. very comfortable on your feet though.

I do think they skate pretty good outside but eventually the wheels will go bad skating outside.

I also trail skate in these skates. I would recommend buying a set of softer outdoor wheels. The ones that come stock on the R3 aren't very good for outdoor in my opinion.

Yes. They are an excellent quality skate with great performance and stability.

They could, but not advised. The wheels are polyurethane, however they are soft and will wear out very fast, and be too tacky to enjoy on pavement. On a wood floor, they are great... Not advised for outdoor.

I gave them as a gift to our three year old grandson; he skates in the kitchen floor right now, but I am sure he will be able to use them outdoors when the weather gets warmer; they seem to be made out of a hard plastic, but for a three year old, out door play would not be out of order, he loves them; I hope this helped;

Yes! They were built to be weatherproof. Mine sit outside all the time and they are still going
