Venom Skateboards Thunder Clouds V2 All Terrain Street Skateboard Wheels Soft Grippy 78a Longboard Cruiser Perfect for Rough Ground - 54mm, 56mm, 58mm, 60mm

TLDR:-Great value for money-Great build quality-Homegrown UK company-Ace compromise between regular skateboard wheels and cruiser wheels-Grippy wheels. Good for safety, not necessarily for advanced tricks or slidingBeen trying to get back into skating after a failed attempt a few years back.My original wheels I were some Ricta naturals. They were too small and too hard for riding on most of the pavements where I live so I got some generic 60mm cruiser wheels. They were good for crying the rough ground where I live but they were very heavy and made it awkward to attempt tricks and the wheelbite was next level. Something had to be done!After grumbling about what to do, I found these. They're a lot cheaper than most skateboard wheels so I thought I'd take a chance.These wheels are a really really good value and an excellent compromise between cruiser wheels and standard wheels! Nice and soft like cruiser wheels providing a really smooth ride which absorbs the majority of cracks and seams you'll encounter but also in a form factor closer to that of a regular skateboard wheel so they aren't biting and I can more easily manoeuvre the board than with the cruiser wheels too.Additionally, I ordered 56mm wheels but received 54mm ones, but I'm not even mad. 54mm seems to be the perfect size in my opinion, I'd recommend going for that size.Only potential minor downfall for some is these wheels is that they have a lot of grip, which to be fair is good for stability, would prevent sliding of the wheels needed for more advanced tricks or powerslides. But if you're like me and you're only really riding about and attempting pretty straightforward stuff these are great for comfort and a bit more safety for riding rough ground. (A killer combo is these wheels and some shock pads! Like skating on a mattress!)Overall, highly recommended!

Great all terrain wheels at an excellent price. Not recommended for tricks but ideal for cruising the beachfront and chasing after my daughter as she takes off on her scooter. Soft compound easily soaks up rough surfaces for a super smooth ride with no worries of being thrown off by the smallest of pebbles. Highly recommended for when cruising takes priority over heel flips.

Got these and tried them out, they felt very sluggish compared to the soft wheels I have from a different brand. So bad that I thought I was doing something wrong or remembering wrong, switched back to my other ones and the difference was night and day (used with reds bearings).

58mm wheels. My daughter rates them as a good compromise wheel for street/cruising and skatepark.Hubs solid and bearings seat nicely. Definitely buy again.Great value.

Nice smooth ride wheels, i have these on both my boards now and im yet to find a fault :)

really decent quality for price, not cheap Chinese reproductions. used on size 8 deck with regular trucks.

Work as stated

I bought the 60mm v2 thunderclouds, my friend has the 60mm v1, I have to say as a direct comparison of these wheels the v2 are really rather good value, the v1 is also excellent , but the v2 is faster, and has a marginally better ride, these wheels are being used on a set of Paris 169 street trucks, on a venom 8.5 deck,(rather nice deck, superb value) So, well worth the cash, very nice wheels, excellent value and really good for every day use, weather it’s ramp,bowl, or street the nice point is there is very little vibration,so you can keep your teeth ! Obviously , these are not going to give the same type of ride as say an Abec11 Centrax, but they are 17mm(5/8”) smaller , and almost 50mm less contact patch . I would have to say they remind me of Powerflex street wheels very similar ride,but of course the venoms are almost half the price of the Powerflex, so an excellent value set of small wheels,at a really great price weather you buy the v1 or v2 very happy with this purchase , and yes when they wear out if the price is still around the same price I would buy another set !
