Default Fuzion Tires?

I need tires for my 04 mach 1. I live in Indiana and its my daily driver so I have to go with all season. I had Goodyear F1 All Seasons, but that was a waste of money as I only got 13000 miles out of them and there is no warranty. Money is also an issue right now. Can I run H rated tires without a problem? I dont plan on going over 130 mph. Also, what do you guys think of the Fuzion HRi's?

Here's what I have: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....Model=Eagle+GT
I prefer a good brand name myself and these are decently priced and wear well. The traction is good front and back, wet or dry but Im only running 245's on the back so obviously I have traction deficiencies.....not that its the tires fault. I grew up in Southern Indiana and I would be willing to bet these would be a better all weather tire considering the weather/winters there (compared to the Fuzions). Worried about the winter time? IMO you cant beat these: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes Kept my '66 coupe stuck to the road passing spun-out FWD's. If youre in the money....spring time fun tip: These Blizzak's make one bad-a** smokey burnout.

I noticed you said $$$ was a little tight. I live in NC, so I don't know much about real harsh winters, but I got some Z-Rated BFG KDWs from TireRack last week for $88 each. They're still on clearance. We've been getting a ton of rain here lately, and they have excellent wet traction. I also pulled some 2.0 60s on them today, so if they work in snow, it may be an option for you. They have a really deep aggressive tread.

The Eagle GT's are a pretty popular tire, I work at discount tire and put at least 1 set on per day. My boss runs them if that says anything. As far as the Fusions go, I have only taken off 1 set in the 3 years I have worked there and Im pretty sure we made fun of the tires lol. I would recomend some Falcon 512's. On the cheap side and perform pretty good from what ive heard.

Thanks for the input. I think I'll go with the Eagle GT's. I was sold on the fuzions until fstanggt96 said he laughed at them. I'll spend the extra cash so I dont become "that guy".
