price almost same..not sure...
performance totally not...
michelin XM2 is intended for long lasting.fuel saving..fuel saving tires has less grip...so means not for performance that u can get from performance tires...
google la...u'll find ur answer...
right now i'm driving on XM2...this tire only for silent,decent dry n wet grip...decent..very decent...comfort tire..what do u expect it for?

see here..

XM2

PS3

see the big differences?if still think XM2 is on PS3 level,then u really need to learn more...

2 XM2 reviews vs 74 PS3 reviews doh.gif

i've not tried XM2 but i do have Primacy LC and PS3... grip wise, PS3 wins hands down (especially wet grip), noise and comfort wise, Primacy LC smile.gif
so thinking whether XM2 is in between Primacy LC and PS3? headache rclxub.gif

i didn't say they are same level lar, i said they are the same price doh.gif
i know XM2 is just an upgrade from their entry level XM1 doh.gif
but like i said, i'm just curious why a high performance tyre can be priced similarly with an entry level...

can share your review on XM2? have you tried PS3?

ei... not bad mar your review smile.gif
wet and dry grip good, quiet, long lasting... just what i need smile.gif

i find PS3 noisy compared to Primacy LC and not as lasting due to the thread wear... the wet grip is perfect but i don't drive that fast during rain anyway smile.gif

dry grip... ok la...
wet grip...still acceptable...but dun go too fast...this is valid for a new tire only...after left only 60% or 50%,all tire is the same...less grip...
silent...superb...

however,if u intent to take fast corner...high speed....adrenalin drive...XM2 is not the candidate...

Since both the V12 and the F1 D5 is rated as UHP tires, the XM2 rated as normal use fuel-saving tires, and the PS3 trumps both the V12 and F1 D5, i won't go for the XM2 lol.

cannot say like that... different cars suit different tyres... dugong has softer suspension setup thus better with PS3, City suspension very hard, need comfort tyres smile.gif
she said she prefers Primacy LC compared to PS3, too bad Primacy LC no longer selling sad.gif

Just fit 195/50/R15 in my myvi...Grip is good, still need to drive longer to test the performance for PS3...Each rubber is not that cheap, but hope it's worth for value.

ps3 should be worth its value. among the best all rounder tires (dry/wet/NVH/treadwear)

the only downside i can find from ps3 is probably the price.

Still havent tested it during raining...noise I will still hear, most probably myvi has bad sound proof overall...Handling improves as its now wider and lower-profile tires are fitted in than the stock ones... I guess 195/55 gives more comfort? Never test thou.

Try Yokohama dB series, they are always good.

Now they have Yokohama ADVAN dB V551, which combine sport driving at superb minimal noise, recommended for those luxury vehicle like your Camry.

Need to check whether got such size for your type. Or you can go for Yokohama C-Drive, which mainly for comfort driving.
