umm....not really, dig around on the BFG site for section withs....then dig around on goodyears and compare...the g-force series (along with a large number of others) run smaller than the "exact" same size goodyears

Im running a set of Pilot Sport A/S's right now that were given to me, and they are MUCH more narrow than the GSD-3's that I had on before. I also had a set of HP Ultra Plus's are damn near the same with as the GSD-3's.

40/40 the guy on drugs?

Set them to 30/30 like the factory tires, you'll see a big difference.

30psi on 245/50 on my car was WAY to soft and had sloppy up front. 40 seemed perfect.

Mine hooks a lot better then the stock goodyears. I think nothing but a true slick really hooks with most our cars

I can't really comment on handling, my car is set up for more straight line.

I've been running them as summer tires since the middle of last summer. I've been happy with them, but I don't drag race and have no interest in 60 foot times. They handle respectably and allow me to save money for race tires (why spend money on "driver" tires, save your money for the track rubber, or that's my theory at least). Are they the best handling tire I've ever driven? No, but they are beyond respectable for about 1/2 the price.

these are AMAZING tires, cheap too $127 each for 275 40 17s hook 1000000xs better than the crappy Goodyear F1s that are stock on SSs. i had Goodyear GS-Cs 245 50 16 @35 psi and cut repeated (about 10 times in a row) 2.0 60's and the Fuzions hook up just as good WITH 40 PSI.

BUY THESE TIRES, if you are on a budget you will be so happy, 10000xs better than Goodyear F1s ($275 each) expecialy for $130 or so each tire

My racing day was over and I had removed my slicks,just for the hell of it I tried the FUZIONs[didn't even air them out or soften the HALs in front.] 1.82 60 ft,I was getting 1.70 with my tired slicks that day.
They are a little softer sidewall than the SZ50s but if you know this you can compensate for it!!!

GREAT TIRE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.// I had tried them last year when my car was M6 and they were terrible,with the A4 they are great!

I have had them for over a year and find them to be an excellent tire. 33 psi on the front and 32psi on the rear.
Rate them 9.5 out of ten and cheap to replace if your into
big smoky burnouts.
