hermans Report post Posted August 23, 2014 My wife gave me the news the other week - she does not want to drive the MKZh this Winter. She wants to spare "her" car from the dangers of snow and ice. So...I went on Tire Rack and ordered a set of Bridgestone Blizzak snow tires and a set of wheels. She picked out the wheels..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corncobs Report post Posted August 23, 2014 It's really unfortunate that we have to think about winter already but being prepared can't hurt. I like the wheels they look very similar to the ones that come we the sport package. P.s. When I read the topic I really thought you already had the first snow ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermans Report post Posted August 23, 2014 After 40 years of marriage I learned long ago to let her pick the wheels for my car. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hybrider Report post Posted August 24, 2014 Those wheels look exactly like the ones that come on the base model of the gas SE (17" Sparkle Silver-Painted Aluminum). Those are my 2nd favorite Fusion wheels, my favorite being the 18" SE Appearance wheels (18" 5-Spoke Premium Painted Aluminum). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were cheaper than the Blizzaks, but my previous experience with the Bridgestones has been great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
