Don't dismiss the Phil Wood. Sure they're expensive, but can you really put a value on street creed? Especially since you'll be wanting to maximize that creed when you pull into LA after the 700 miles ride.
What crank are you using? Sugino 75s come in all kinds of anodized colors, you should really look at how those will complement / accent your wheels. Colored chain?
Holler up No Cal !!
as hilarious as this is i'll give you a non dickish response. if youre doing tricks (what kind of ratio is 52/17 for tricks?), get some profiles, they make them in green, and 36 hole, and soon will have them in a fix/ fix, and should hold up really well.
or for something cheaper milwaukee hubs, but i don't know if they come in 36, but theyre formula comparable.
and throw some phil bearings in them.
