    Let me preface this by saying that I work for Bridgestone (the makers of Fuzion). I'm not looking for performance reviews. Think of this as a market survey.

    Do you think Fuzion is a worthwhile brand? Personally, when I see or hear the name "Fuzion" I immediately think "boy racer." They really aren't bad tires for the price, but if I were going to put down the money for a set of mediocre street tires, I'd buy some standard Falken, Yokohama, Kumho, etc.

    What are your thoughts on the brand? Would you ever consider buying a set for a car (not necessarily your wrx/sti)?

    Fuzions come to mind when I'm shopping for a set of tires that I know are not going to deliver too much in terms of performance, but wear long and are decently constructed.

    I would buy a set for my car, sure.

    I have a set on my extra wheels. They are a bit noisy for my taste. In my experience you get what you pay for with tires

    I had a set on my old V6 Accord years ago. HATED them. Price was decent but they were noisy as crap. Dry grip was ok but wet grip was horrible.

    I would never buy them again.

    Is there a tire that you DON'T find noisy?

    My current tires aren't noisy but granted the new car has crap ton of insulation in it compared to the Subaru. My buddy has a set of Michelin tires that are insanely quiet on his WRX. Oh and if I can hear the noise from a loud car being that I am hearing impaired....that's bad you ginger headed freak....lol.

    on my subaru...
    Had the Fuzions at first...drove it for 100 miles, hated them (noisy and hard) so I took them back to the tire place and they let me exchange them for Falkens 912's (now IMO are a great street tire) fora few dollars more. Avoiding Fuzions and spending a little more is highly recommended.

    I think Fuzions are made by Bridgstone, so I was suprised by it's cheap quality.

    he says in the OP that Fuzion is made by Bridgestone.

    I've always seen them as a low price alternative for the Honda crowd that needed something cheap with a cheesy name. The perception and subsequent reality of the being low grip ,long wearing, loud rolling, and no substance but inexpensive.

    I've never even considered them as there are so many other comparably priced tires that are so much better

    I would spend my money on a Kuhmo or Falken first!
