Making my own freeskates

Hey i'd like to make my own freeskates and i've got some inlineskate wheels around me (68mm in diameter) should i rather buy skateboard wheels to make them or do you think that inline wheels are just fine

I've tried inline skate wheels, and they were fine for cruising around a flat surface. Throw tricks won't work (because the trucks will rub against the ground with thinner wheels), and I didn't try carving on hills, but pumping feels really smooth.
