im guessing when you got wheel bite on 180mm trucks they were probably like 42 degrees and oyu had really loose bushings. i had the same thing with my voodoo doll but i jsut put some harder bushings in and i was all good

but the 195 should be fine with a 50 degree baseplate

I have the belly racer and Jacob hit it spot on. Just check for wheel bite before you ride and tighten it down. I've run 42 and 50 degree plates with 75mm otangs. Just mess with your bushings set up

Yeah it'll be fine with the 70 mm wheels (im assuming the plates are 50). I'm running 42's with 180 hangers (86a cone roadside and 90 barrel boardside) and 70mm powerballs. I don't have an issue but as I said check for wheel bite before you ride and tighten appropriately

yeah 50 degree base plate and 70 mm wheels, but they are probably smaller now,  thanks for your help much appreciated :)
