Fuzion tires by bridgestone
Has anyone seen any reviews for the Fuzion ZRi tire put out by Bridgestone
this past year? Have not seen anything written about them and they don't appear on tirerack.com. The price is very attractive but... Just wondering if anyone else has heard or seen anything on them. |

Raymond,
I have not heard much about them, but the 4 local dealers all say the Fusion is OK for a low budget tire, but there is no warrenty on them, they only come in W-, V- and H-speed ratings and 3 suggusted no way on a vette and all said the Potenza while being more expensive is a far better choice. Most of the reviews are on much lighter and less powerful cars, have not found a Vette review. The Mastercare site has some usefull info: http://www.mastercare-usa.com/servlet/selector Where on my car, they are rated the lowest of the three ratings they give and are considered "Silver Rated Tires (Low-priced)" Most other reports say for the money they are a good deal, but they are aimed at the sport-compact market and would not last with either the torque or hi G forces of a Vette. Road and Track has a mini review: http://www.roadandtrack.com/article....ber=2&preview= My C-5 came with BF Goodrich g-Force Sport tires which are usually listed as low budget tires, but for the most part, found them to be very good. Biggest problem was in rain and not the best. And we do get our share of rain here ! I am now running the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S and love them, not cheap, but hold the road wet or dry. I use the 245/45ZR17 for the front and the back are 275/40ZR18. They look like they will last a long time as even after 8000 miles, they still look almost new. I have found that Epinions can be helpful in getting info on almost everything sold. Readers comments I find the most helpful. http://www.epinions.com/auto-Tires-All However asking about good tires will give you about as many replies as asking about the best yr. vette or best anti-virus software as they will probably range all over the place. Hope this gives you some idea's !
