i looked through the stickied thread on tires but id rather get some real advice on tire selection. car lays down about 380awhp and sits on 16x8" wheels. just wanderin what tires you think would work best for a all year driven car... located in PA so it gets hot in summer and snows in winter.
thanx
 
I lovemy fuzion tires also and i live in chicago so i know what weather you are talking about, but unfortunetley i haven't gone through a winter with them yet, sorry. In the rain, heat, down pours, they work great!

Yeah I got a set of the W rated ones for 70 bucks a tire :D . I can honestly say that are grippier than any of the potenzas, toyo, nitto, HO, etc I have ever driven on.

However snow performance is often based on "sipes" (cuts in the tire tread) and fuzion tires have very few of these so I expect they will not be great in that respect.
 
Yeah i got mine at a good deal also, place i used to work at still hooks me up! Yeah i have heard that these tires arent going to be the best in the snow, but the way i look at it is that we are AWD, so that will account for something, i mean i used to have FWD and it can't get much worse in my opinion. I am glad to see someone else likes the fuzions, i mean they are a bridgestone tire, so there is quality in them but just my opinion.
 
ill have to check them out, right now im using nt555's and its pricey for 4 tires, and theyre horrible in any amount of water
