Given 64% while driving a Honda CRV (215/65 R15) on a combination of roads for 20,000 average miles
these tyres are quite worth the price for the qualities it has. economy wise abit of improvement hardly noticable. comfort is very good at first when new nearly no noise but now after awhile starting to get noisier. grip levels are good but its fitted on an suv so yea.. tread wear still very good even though this car has been known to eat tyres because of its small width and heavy weight.

Replacing my saga R3 so call "performance" car. Equip with ATLAS A350 thailand tyre. After about 1 year change the tyre to MX2+. cabin noice drop noticeable. Wet handling and breaking improve tremendously. And really improve on comfort...

Given 64% while driving a Chevrolet Lacetti (195/60 R15) on mostly country roads for 1,500 easy going miles
It is very noisy and hard... when compared to my previous bridgestone ecopia 300 and continental cc6. Makes your steering wheel feels bumpy and harsh. Not comfortable at all.. very disappointed.Will stay away from these for sure. From an experienced skillful driver of 40 years. Michelin XM2plus is really an over rated tyre. It is like riding on non-pneumatic tyres. Takes uneven road surfaces very badly. The worst by far!

One of the best tires, long lasting and supreme grip even in wet weather condition. Downside is it is noiser compare to cc6. But overall I am very satisfied with it performance.

Given 100% while driving a Nissan Cube (185/60 R15) on a combination of roads for 0 easy going miles
Reliably for all sorts of dry, frosty and wet roads with comfort. I could easily get an extra 50 klms per tank on distance so the tyres saved me on fuel as well.

With weight added, the sidewalls stayed true to their form both low and Hiway speeds.

I've had theses tyres for six years and so happy with them.

Given 82% while driving a Mitsubishi magna (205/65 R15) on mostly town for 10,000 easy going miles
Had four years and done 16,000 kms. Still looking new. Very quiet with nice road feel and feedback. About to fit 1" larger diameter wheels and will definitely be fitting another set of these.

Given 87% while driving a Toyota Estima Type X (215/60 R16) on mostly town for 90,000 average miles
Low noise, smooth ride, low resistance, long lasting. The tyres looked worn out towards its end of life but was still performing well, though the noise level increases (which is expected). I have used Michelin XM, XM2 and just installed 4 brand new XM2+. Highly recommended for those looking for affordable, safe and comfortable tyres.

Not bad at all , very good dry and wet grip, road feedback is good, have them for 10k kilos still like new, however they are a little noisy and squeaky especially in summer day. They're not that eco tiers they rate c , but not bad at all.
