Default Re: What tires do you suggest?

Check out the Firestone Fuzions. They have a H series and a Z series and right now, because of low demand, the Z series are actually cheaper by around $20 a tire. Talk to a Firestone rep. The Fuzions earned higher marks than some of the big named brands. I'm on my second set of HRi's and love them. Dry and wet, they are great. Snow, however, they are f'ing scary. I know they are performance tires, but when it says all weather performance, they forgot to test 'em in New England... ask my insurance...
I want to say the HRi's are around $120 each and the ZRi's are like $105. When I asked why the Z's were cheaper they had little demand because the price used to be $50+ more per tire. No demand huge supply equals lowered price to move 'em. Unfortunately I wasn't in the need for tires when I was there... Good luck
