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.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Ford Fusion SE drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
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.
