I used to run a 4.3 bennet (7* wedge) and a 35* 125 (wedged to 20*) randal setup. Don't think you could do much better for the price.

Only reason I say boardshop is bcause I know they do hangers only.

Even though he doesn't have a bricks and mortar shop Tony isn't such a bad guy. I met him a few years ago. I prefer to stay out of the political bullshit other have.

You could just buy a 35* plate and run it with your paris 50/35. Not much of a slalom setup but you'd do a lot better pumping than wedging a 50* plate. Throw some 98 venoms in the back and some softs in the front and you'll get it pumping - pretty much how I started off but with randals. Though wheel bite would be an issue. Wouldn't recommend wedging the front past 60*.

Got no idea what a Bennett truck is worth. All I know is the early slalom child has them on it is the video.
And no I wont do board shop. I wil buy from ado.
Cre8ive sk8 is the go.

Budget solution.

If you have a 35 deg randal plate or equiv' you can buy a 125 randal hanger from boardshop and that will take care of you back truck. Use your hardest barrel bushes and crank it down tight.

Make me an offer for my 4.1" Bennet truck and there's you front sorted. PM me if you're interested.

So long as your deck is flat without kicks where the trucks mount you won't require any wedges.

Start with at least a 20-21" WB

65-70mm wheels with sq lip.
