Has anybody ran fuzion uhp tires? I know these are cheap price tires and heard of them when they first came out years ago but never heard alot about them.

I haven't had the uhp's but the HRI's that they no longer make are not bad at all for the price. Check out the reviews on the major tire sites and see what other people are saying

I'm gonna run the Sumitomo HTR Z III. They are reasonable and get great reviews.

Here's a quote from a review on the Fusion's from TireRack. "I bought these because I had Fuzions before (ZRI) and liked them. That said, these are loud, unresponsive (car feels like its wandering over the road, tried different tire pressures to no avail), but do have an amazing amount of dry grip."

Has anybody ran fuzion uhp tires?

I've always been a fan of Bridgestone and Firestone tires. Almost always had good results with them. That is until I got a set of the (discontinued) HRI tires on my Sentra Spec-V. Felt like a totally different car and not in a good way. Kinda like going from a Corvette to a Buick. While the tires were quiet and lasted a long time, they wandered badly, turn in response was gone, decreased cornering grip, etc...

I went to a Sumitomo HTRZ-III (someone mentioned above) later and the car was back to it's old self. Liked the Sumitomo so much I put a set on my Mazda5 also. Great grip, responsive, not very noisy, smooth and decent tread life. Now I'm on a set of Continental DWS. AWESOME TIRE by the way.

If you are going to shop the Bridgestone/Firestone dealer, stick with a tried and true set of non-directional Potenza's like the RE-050 or the RE-070 or RE-760.
