It looks like 74mm is a dead size along with 78mm.
I think that some of the skate companies used the odd sizes so that people
would buy replacements from them.

However, many older skates will take wheels that are a couple millimeters
larger than they came with.
Look closely at the clearance for the rear wheel and the one under the ball
of the foot. Those are the areas of the skate that usually have the least
clearance.

Both 72 and 76mm are common sizes. RollerBob is one of many places where
you can get them.

Try a local store that sells in-line skate wheels. Maybe not 74 mm, but
some have smaller than 80 mm. The brand of skate doesn't matter.

Good luck and have fun.

there are no differences between K2 74mm wheels and any others(except
perhaps the label and specs) ....if you want me to get a set together
for $10 plus postage, just email me
