I've run Venoms for over 30K miles. the fronts usually last about 12K miles and the rears 8-10K. Good in the wet as well as the dry. The only problem I've had is that they go from looking OK to needing replaced RIGHT NOW in a single day (400-500 miles.)

We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
