Ford Fusion SE Tyres

Dealer installed these tires when I bought the car. I did not expect them to be great, but I was pleasantly surprised how well they've handled Wisconsin weather year round for 5 years. Pretty solid in the rain, not the greatest in winter, but they managed about as well as I expect an all season touring tire to manage. I did drive in some deeper snow a few times long distance since I live in a small town, and with proper driving technique, they did managed to keep me from ever getting stuck.

I previously had a set of Michelin CrossClimate+ in 205/60R16 on this car and upgraded to 18x8s with these Contis. Overall, they're good! I do like them, they grip very well in most conditions I've experienced so far. I live in Georgia, USA, so we don't get much snow - cannot comment on snow grip. At cold but dry temperatures (12F, -8C) they stuck just fine to the roads. The handling balance has shifted from straight understeer to quite neutral, in fact on a rainy day I was able to get some lift-off oversteer, which I could not previously.

I had the CrossClimates on track, they were wholly unsuitable for it but still fun. I haven't taken the DWS06+s out on track yet, but I know I'd be able to extract more even out of this base model midsize sedan with them.
