By installing extended length rails on your Onewheel you open up some great options for Onewheel Modifications. Eliminate tire rub on larger tire sizes as well as allowing yourself wider stance options. There are definitely some great benefits to modifying your Onewheel with some Extended Rails.
Onewheel Extended Rails
Bigger Onewheel Tires
An even larger selection of Onewheel Tire Upgrades becomes available. Bigger Onewheel Tires like the Treaded Burris 11.5X7.00-6 TX-22. Or, the Hoosier Treaded 11.00 x 6.5-6. And, the Dunlop Wet Racing 11.5X7.10-6. Will all become viable tire selections with extended rails on your Onewheel. Normally these larger tire sizes need to be used at lower PSI for a break-in period, to prevent rubbing. But, with extended length Rails on your Onewheel, this is not an issue.
Wider Stance
There are options for a wider stance using a Onewheel Concave Footpad like the Craft&Ride Onetail+. The wide stance offered by using extended rails on your Onewheel allows for even foot spacing on either side of the wheel.
Clearance For More Than Just Tires
Using extended Onewheel Rails allows for more spacing between the wheels and battery casing. Not only does this prevent wheel rub on when using larger tires. It also helps with Fender noise, by allowing for gravel and debris to easily exit the fender well.

Summary
The addition of extended rails to your Onewheel is surely a big modification to undertake. You will have to strip down your onewheel completely and you will void your warranty. That being said, the benefits could be great for some riders. Being able to run larger tires and get that even wider stance for a flowier ride, magic!

Wassup guys I’m Dustin with KiiL guards and I’m wondering if you guys know where I can buy rails in bulk! At least 20 sets to start and hopefully much more soon. Just wondering if y’all know any hookups? Also we’ve been wondering how many one wheels do you think are out there now? I’ve been seeing tons lately, I think the worlds figuring out how awesome these boards are. Thanks much

Hey Dustin, for the rails, you may want to reach out directly to one of the aftermarket rail manufacturers. Or alternatively, if you want original rails, check with Witz Wheels.
As for OW numbers, it’s hard to say, but our community has really exploded since the release of the Pint.
Sideways 4 Life,
