FUZION Tires: Whats the deal?

[bronsin]

I just bought a set of FUZION HRi tires for my wifes Camry in 205 65 15. I read on their website they are made by Bridgstone. They appear to be really well made tires just like the Bridgestones are. I got them at TR for $53 each. Why they so cheap but look so good?

they're an excellent tire for the money.

i've had HRI's, VRi's and ZRI's. i recommend them all as an inexpensive tire.

I used to work for Bridgestone/ Firestone. There is aboslutely nothing wrong with the tire. When they started the Fuzion line they were directing the tire at a certian demograph (car modders). They made a tire that looks "cool" and can preform if needed. I love HRi's I put them on my Mom's Acura TL Type S, my Brother's Cavalier, my old lowered s10. I would recomeend all but the ZRi's I had got a lot of complaints about the traction not being that great.

i would agree, but i'd pick a ZRI over a Falken 512 anyday. at least the ZRI has sidewalls not made from used condoms.

Used condoms, That must mean they are real sticky?

Did you know some Falkens are made by Sumitomo?

my 512's I had forever (because i couldn't afford new tires for a while)

the tread got hard, really hard, but never gave me a sidewall issue.



I have 912's now.

Falken 912s yup

I used to have fuzion ZRi 225/45/17 on my previous car.
They were nice looking, quiet, and lasted long time.
I'd definitely buy another set of fuzion if there is the right size.
