Is that a make or a model? Be afraid of tires you've never heard of...

It's a make. I know of them, but don't know anything useful, sorry.

Default Yeah, I had the Fuzion ZRi's,

Not a bad tire for the money, wet and dry traction was good, but as the tread wore down the wet traction went away, not a loud tire until tread wore down, I thought turn in repsonse was good, they didn't ride harsh.

They wore out fast though, 15K and they were done.

Fuzion is a spin off of Bridgestone tyres, they share some of their tire technology (uni-T)but not the vary lastest stuff.

It's not a bad tire, but I won't buy them again because they wore out so fast. From a tread wear rating they are similar to the S0-3.

Tire Rack carries them, they might have some reviews.<ul><li><a href="http://thefuzionzone.com/">http://thefuzionzone.com/</a</li></ul>

Agreed. I don't want to be someone else's guinea pig...

Default It's a cheap Bridgestone low profile line... we sell them to people who don't want to spend $$...

to put the OEM S-02's on their Honda S2000's

Default I have them right now for my summer/spring/fall tires. So far

they have been good.. Only had them about 3,000 miles or so. Not as good traction on wet or dry as the S0-3s I had, but they were also a LOT cheaper. Up to this point, they have had decent traction in wet and dry, not too noisy, and the wheel protecting edge around the tire is nice (I wish I had these originally on these wheels...). Good tire for the price, nothing bad to say about it yet.
