Review on MICHELIN Energy XM2+ 205/65 R15 94V Summer by Stanislaw Sipko ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

just acquired in March 2022. About 4000 R was spent on each tire (the slow dimension is always more expensive). There were only about four brands in the first line from which I could choose, as it turned out. Malaysia started producing Toyo rubber, and in every single assessment, it is said that this is an entirely different rubber. Nokian Green writes decently, but it wears thin quickly. In the fire: Yokohama and Bridstone. In terms of my dimension, Goodyear did not notice anything. I instantly sold my native Korean tires because I don't want Korean Kumho and Hankuk, despite the fact that it appears that in recent years, the ratings on Korean summer tires have improved significantly. Yes, and some Chinese factories are already producing some Korean rubber. I purchased MICHELIN Energy XM2+ tires in the following size: 195/60 R15 (2022). A little more durable as compared to Toyo CF2 (Japan). The MICHELIN Energy XM2+ has a little lower level of noise. Prior to that, there was Japanese-made Bridgestone Turanza ER300 rubber, which is often useless to compare to because Bridgestone is a very noisy and hard rubber. What I didn't like is now. The letters XM2 are written on one side of the tire, and XM2 + are written on the opposite side of the same rubber. Don't feel ashamed; this shouldn't be the case. XM2 + However, stickers are present everywhere. At first, I believed they were selling the older XM2 model for the same price as the newer XM2 (+)).

Pros
  • New. The sidewall is not weak, that much is clear. It is reasonably thick and springy. Hernias ought to be impossible, in theory. Reviews of the XM2's predecessor claim that it should have a lengthy walking range. Undoubtedly, the tires are quite quiet (my Hyundai Matrix has average sound insulation). became audible, but not in relation to the engine and the road.
Cons
  • I wouldn't describe it as soft. Toyo was more gentle. The term "elastic" is more appropriate for the XM2 +, as they properly note here in other evaluations. Pits swallows, although not so quietly and straight.
