New tires!
I finally got some brand spanking new tires today due to the fact I hit a pothole last weekend that caused a HUGE bubble in the sidewall of one of my Goodyear Eagle RS-A's. I went cheap and got Fuzion ZRi's for 93 bucks a piece and I'm also getting a 4 wheel alignment too. The guy told me they were really good tires for the price and that he'd had no complaints about them at all. He was very interested in the SVX too and can't wait to look it over when I get the tires installed in the morning. I'll give you all a review of what I think of them after I put some miles on them tomorrow and work them a little.

Budfreak,
I've been running on ZRi's for a year now and am happy with the results. But, man, I had to pay more than $93.00. They are 17" though. Gene

Jason, how are your new tires? Drive faster and have fun, however, be careful, that'll be sucked if the new tires get hit and has bubble. That's happened to my mx-3's new tires. Only 7k miles so far, one nail hits right near the sidewall and got a bubble now...

Well, I took a nice long trip today and these tires are really great for the price. They seem to be very sticky, the ride is much better than before, and the handling has improved too with much better response to steering input. They even saved my ass right at the beginning of the trip when I went to change lanes and some dip**** in a probe flew up off an on ramp and into the lane I was heading for. I saw him at the last second and whipped it back into the lane I was in. The back end snapped loose and had to be corrected a little, But it held in there nicely and saved the day. I think my goodyears would have let me slide into the wall. I recommend the fuzion ZRi tires so far with zero complaints.

I'm still loving them so far. Very grippy compared to what I'm use to and smooth, quiet riding.
