Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, with the Fuzion XTi tire?
I am looking for a good all-season tire for an 02 Merc Mountaineer, and
I found this tire at a local tire shop. It has a lower price than some
of the other tires I am looking at, but I can't find much info about
it. Seems like it is fairly new to the market. Made by Bridgestone I
think..

The majority of the driving is highway and around town. Located in the
Pacific NW, so I'm interested in good wet and snow traction...

Thanks.

I didn't see the XTi when I recently bought tires, but Fuzion
brand (it is Bridgestone) tires do seem to be made in lower
labor cost countries (primarily Indonesia). Don't know if
that really matters in terms of quality control. The ZRi
samples that I saw in the stores were made in Japan. Didn't
see the XTi, but the two patterns seem a bit gimmicky, sort
of like the Ronal Bear wheel.
