Hey guys, I'm looking at these Fuzion tires and notice that they only
come in 205 or 225 widths, not 215... I have 225/55s on right now (AVS
dB2) and they look like they're friggin' pregnant they bulge out so far
on stock slicers. I'm tempted to get 205/55 fuzions to help out
cornering response at the sake of all-out traction. I wanted to go for
wider tread width cos I thought I'd be racing a lot but there's really
no opportunity for that except on the highway where hole-shot traction
is N/A. I know the measuring rim for the 205 is 6.5" vice 7" for the
225s... is this a good idea? Or will I lose too much traction? Or should
I hunt for a tire that has a 215 tread width? So many questions!
