Im about to buy a new set of tires and I'm debating between the Fuzion VRi or Bridgestone Turanza Serenity. Anyone have experience or option of the two? For the cost savings I'm willing to try the Fuzion's, but I'm a bit concerned about the road noise.

It's an interesting choice, because you are comparing cheap-o apples (Fuzion) with expense oranges (Serenity).

However, if noise is your concern, don't hesitate and go with the Serenity. It is one of the best Grand Touring tires available and it has excellent wet-weather handling. In fact, the only thing the Fuzion will do better than the Serenity is winter handling (snow & ice). It is much noisier. Perhaps Consumer Report's comparative review of both of the tires can explain more (Serenity came in No. 3, the Fuzion VRi came in dead-last):

Fuzion VRI seems to be good as long as you stay off the snow. You will hear road noise no matter what tires you put on your TSX. I put on a set of Michelin Primacy MVX two weeks ago. They're supposed to be one of the best in noise comfort, but it's just marginally less noise than the stock tires. It has more to do with the car.

Fuzion tires are crap, they may be made by Bridgestone but the quality are nothing compared to the Bridgestone. I put on a set of Fuzion on my other car and had to take them off in less than 3000 miles because I could not stand how noisy they were! When I mean noise, they were were loud!
