Hi all... I was looking at some Fuzion HRi tires for my 17's... does anyone on here have eny experience with these or the ZRi's? I know they're made by Bridgestone and have a 40k warranty on em... A friend of mine gets them cheap so they're at the top of my list I'm leaning toward the HR's in 215/45 because I want a little more comfort and rain capability after a year of fairly punishing Nankang NS-1's in 205/40. Any opinions/reviews/thoughts on Fuzions?

 

My friend bought these tires in 215/45/17 for his Honda. He was not happy with them; they were noisy and didn't offer the level of grip he wanted.

 

Probably not a bad tire for the money. I'm just not a big Bridgestone/Firestone fan. I think they use the warranty to cover up all their problems. You also have to prove that you rotated your tires every x,xxx miles, etc, etc, to claim. I also had a set of Bridgestone RE-910's on my Neon. 70k tires that only lasted 30k with regular rotations, air pressure checks and so on. Could have claimed warranty here but those tires were so bad IMHO that I was ready for a different brand.

Anyway, here's how it compares to other tires on Tire Rack's survey:

FWIW, I purchased Yokohama H4S for my xB in 215-40-17. I'm very satisfied with them and would buy them again. They have a 500 treadwear rating and appear to be wearing very well after 4,500 miles.

Hope this helps.

 

I have them on two of my vehicle, I like them alot!

I don't know about the HRis, but I have a set of ZRis in 205/55/15 on my 15x7" wheels and I love them. They are perform great in both wet and dry. They also have a nice tread pattern. :D

Other close contenders in the price range are the Falken Ziex ZE-512s and the Yokohama AVS ES100s.

 

I had a set of 225/45/17s on my GTi and never had a problem w/them, even in light snow (about an inch)

 

i had a buddy that has them and they worked pretty good
