Best tyres for the Ford Fusion
For everyday driving the priorities are wet braking, comfort and value. A premium summer tyre is best if you switch for winter; a good all-season tyre suits one set all year.
The Ford Fusion typically runs 195/60 R15, 195/55 R16 on 15 to 16 inch wheels. A taller, heavier mini mpv works its tyres harder in corners and in the wet, so a strong wet-grip rating and a load rating that matches the weight are worth more than simply buying the cheapest tyre in the size.

Ford Fusion tyre sizes
These are common fitments across recent Ford Fusion generations. Your exact size depends on the generation, trim and wheels, so confirm it from the tyre sidewall, the door placard or your V5C. New to it? See what a size like 195/60 R15 means.
Recommended pressures
Your Ford Fusion's recommended pressures are on the placard in the driver's door shut or fuel flap, and in the handbook. Set them cold, and raise them when fully loaded or towing. Our guide to correct tyre pressure and where to find your figures cover the detail.
What to watch on a Fusion
A heavier body wears the shoulders if pressures drop, so keep them topped up and watch both edges. See both edges worn from under-inflation if you spot it.
