New Fuzion tire

[vindication]

Has anybody heard anything about the new Fuzion tires. I beleive they are part of Bridgestone. They are supposed to be the best thing out. They just came out or are about to come out within the next month or two. I've been trying to find some info on them.

All I've seen is the marketing information from Bridgestone.

They're going after the "tuner" market so these tires may end up being more for looks, not real performance or insane levels of grip .. probably won't really know until people start testing them.

They sure are priced attractively though.

Tire Rack had them on their website a few days ago, but now they're gone. The brand name is still there, but no description. I was comparing them to the AVS 100 and Spec 2 from Yokohama.

The description didn't mention Bridgestone, but the UNI-T reference was there. IIRC they were real cheap, cheaper than Sumitumo and the lousy 712's in the max/ultra high performance category.

Fuzion Tires Information

I am a seller of Bridgestone and Firestone Tires, in TORONTO. If you need to know anything about these tires, let me know. We are getting ready for a season-end sale and the tires are being cleared out at some pretty insane prices.

Fuzion Tires are mad by Bridgestone and distributed with the name Fuzion. Think about it, all you have to do is pay for a tire; not it's reputation as well. (direct)

i use the fuzion.. all grip, no spinning, no wheel hop, they stick to the pavement wet or dry. they won't spin but i still bark 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. so far i give them a A-, i've had them on for 4500 miles so far, so good..they get an A+ if they last longer than my potenza which was almost 20,000 miles. harder compound than potenza, they are not a soft tire.

let us know how they do after they are worn some. Say like at least 75% tread life left and after. then we can see if they are good or not.

Think of it as the "scion" brand for bridgestone.

How Much?

 

[Groza187]

I got 'em and I love 'em the dunlops don't even compare.

 

[vindication]

but how many miles you got on them. the real comparison is when they get down past 70% tread life. This is what I wanna know; how they handle after this poit in their lives.
