bought these to replace bridgestones on my mazda 3, after being told they were worth the extra money. Well that seems true enough. 195/65/15 for $133 each incl balanceis not too pricey + a $50 eftpos card from Jax. great in wet, much quieter than bridgestone B250 or supercats, maybe even a bit more economy (from 7.4 l/100 to 7.2 l ). No complaints so far
Now done 45000km, perhaps another 15000 left. Still quiet, and good in wet and quiet. No complaints

I have recently upgraded my tyres to xm2.
I can feel the excellent control and grip over dry and wet compare to my old cheap budget tyre. My old tyres has no wet grip at all and that's why I needed to get better ones. I was expecting better fuel consumption but no noticeable change on that. Overall, I think they are pretty good.

These tyres are so much better than the Bridgestone RE92s that came with my V6 Camry I'm sticking with them even though they are 25% more expensive than Conti's 4 for price of 3 offer. Got 60,000 out of them and not down to the check mark yet. Only compared to 50K for the RE92s. Much better handling AND FAR SUPERIOR in the wet. My car has racked up 300 K's without missing a beat in all conditions including highway, gravel, off road through paddocks, cane fields, creeks etc and I swear by these tyres.

I had a set of Michelin XM2's on my Toyota Aurion Prodigy and replaced them with a set of Pirelli P1's. I'm not sure of the mileage on the Michelin's because they were on the car which I bought second hand. I've travelled 15000k on thePirelli's and I'm fairly happy but the Michelin's were definitely a more comfortable tire. In all other respects I find them similar but for ride alone I will purchase Michelin's next time. The ride really is so much more comfortable.

These tyres are by far the most noisy I have ever owned. My fuel consumption in the first 10,000kms has gone up 1.5 litres per 100 (was 8.2 - now 9.7) with pretty much same driving patterns. Even turning at a roundabout at normal speed, you can hear the tyres screeching!

Noisy, increased fuel consumption

Fitted a set on my Avalon (size 205x65/15) in December 2012, replacing Falken ZE-912s. Done just over 16,000 km and they've been excellent! They are quiet on coarse-chip roads and handle very well in the wet and dry. Best of all, they're not too soft and show minimal wear. A big improvement over the Falkens that wore out in about 23,000 km of comparable driving!
Quiet, good price, durable. Great cruising tyre.

These tyres replaced 215/60R16 Supercats on a 2008 Toyota Camry. Improved handling and no more wheel spin on take offs especially in the rain. .Quiet as well on the motorway. Have travelled around 2,000 kms so far and happy with the XM2's although have not found greatly improved fuel economy.
Handling and safety.
No great improvement to vehicle fuel economy

QUIET AND SOFT WITH 36psi, WHAT ELSE DO U WANT.
Using it on my Toyota Aurion in 215/60/R16
Not tested yet in wet conditions how ever over all road grip is much better as compared to my previous tyres, Recommend to always change all 4 tyres rather than 2 in pairs.
QUIET SOFT, VALUE FOR MONEY, AFTER ALL ITS MICHELIN
NOTHING

I had a set of Michelin Energy XM1s in my commodore for last 60,000km and they were fantastic in wet and dry. Given XM1s are no longer made i thought i give XM2s a try. However after driving 2000km on XM2 they are not good as XM1s in wet. Guaranteed wheel spin at traffic lights in wet/ or going up a hill. Only good thing about XM2 is they are less noisy on the road than XM1s for sure.
Less noise
not so good in wet

I replaced a set of Pirelli's with the Michelin Energy XM2 and noticed the difference immediately. It's very noticeable how much smoother the ride is and the handling is fantastic. There is also a big drop in tyre noise. Don't get me wrong, the Pirelli's were pretty good tyres, but these are just so much better all round. My fuel consumption has been better and the tread seems to be wearing pretty well, so this is shaping up to be money very well spent. Definitely worth the extra few dollars.
Smooth ride, quiet and responsive handling
