There are some threads here in the forum that it's very hard to get a new rear tire for the 08+ Pitbulls. These are only made by Avon in UK.

I now got an Email from BDMPP that they let produce new tires in the UK. Order must be placed this weekend:

140-000211-00 | BDM Performance Products

I will see to get one of this production for myself ;) .

Edit:
Just attached the pic of the Email....

Jochen make sure to check the manufacture date on the tire. I'm not sure if AVON is still making those venoms but the picture on the BDPP site shows a venom tire and I thought they stopped making them. I could be wrong though, maybe it's only the 300mm series tire that they stopped making the venoms in...

BDM Performance Products posted this offer on Facebook, and I asked when they were manufactured, as we all understand that Avon stopped making the Venom tire a few years ago and replaced with the Cobra (which as many of you here have had issues with). I asked them for more info/details, but they have not posted a reply. If these are Cobra's, this is not a good deal - just google Avon 280/40 and you will find places selling them for about $100 less than BDM Performance Products are, and you won't find anyone who has the Venom in stock except for Arlen Ness on Ebay - but they are from 2007 (I asked them). Buyer Beware.

BDM Performance Products posted a response to my question on Facebook: "These are Venom tires - (But Venoms and Cobras are interchangeable)..This is from an existing supply of 280 Venoms that are warehoused. From our understanding, production of these tires won't resume until inventory has been depleted. However, there is no supply in the US at this time - they have to be shipped form the UK."

So Breeze, is Avon planning on making the venoms in the 300 series again? Or not?

Sorry, I didn't ask about 300's.

But for what it's worth, consider what we know. Avon hasn't made Venoms for 3 or 4 years and have been producing and selling Cobra's. What is being sold is some found old inventory, which in my opinion, even if stored properly, still has aged. They may say they will start producing Venoms after all are sold - but that just doesn't make sense to me. In my opinion, Avon hasn't made the Venom for years, they have retooled to make the Cobra, and we won't be seeing any new Venoms made...in any size. Again, just my opinion.
