What about the Fuzion ZR's on the 968...good idea? What sizes do you suggest? Are they relatively quiet or relatively noisy?

Wheel size would be helpful. Assuming stock...go with 225/50/16 and 245/45/16.

For the money, NOTHING touches the Zri. They are fairly quiet, grip well, and have good longevity.

Awesome tires, I got 17s for my 951 and I LOVE them! $428 + tax at the local Firestone store for everything. Highly recomended.

Same experience as OWLP, I got 275 and 255/40-17's on my 951 and have been through several incidents with them (rain and Mobil 1 don't mix!) with nothing but confidence. They grip very well dry, resist hydroplaning in heavy rain, and are cheaper than a Saigon hooker. $405 out the door with road hazard. Give them a try, you'll be surprised.

Well, this thread is very helpful.
I have 2 worn out tires on my 951, both fronts, they were Toyo Proxes, and they're completely bald, have Fuzion ZRi's on the rear, and now I'm going to get them to replace the fronts!

Just did my first DE weekend with the Fuzions. Great both wet and dry compared to the old Kumhos. Great price too.
