I heard a lots people say that Michelin XM2 quite bad in grip on Dry and Wet Surfaces.
Here is My Opinion. I used XM1 and I think XM2 wont have much difference , and I just changed to Bridgestone GR90, the difference is too much already. The Grip of GR90 greater than XM1 on Dry Surface, the XM1 you drive very fast, you can feel it not grip and like drifting.
Rubber of XM1 is harder that why it last longer than normal tyre, when you pass through a road with hole , you will feel very painful . So I suggest you get GR 90 or C Drive 2 which the rubber more soft
Is bad in Dry and Wet? but i saw on Tyrereview.com the percentage is almost the same oo..just Progressive is way low for XM2 Here is My Opinion.

as far as i know they are from YHI. however the tires aren't from japan (not yokohama high end range anyways) and they are typically from Philippines or some even Thailand. grey importers or not wouldn't matter, as warranty claims for tires are grey lined as hell. (most of the time they just say your own dmg and no claims will be entertained)
YHI?? yea..i dont care about the warranty coz normally they dont care.What i care is the manufacturer of those tyre basically i looking for tyre which is fresh like 1 - 2 month ..i had ask Quicksave which they had the C-Drive 2 but the manufacturer day was 4 months back..which i wonder is worth it anot as i know rubber tends to become harder after some period from the manufacturer day.
Still doubt whether to stay back on this 185/60/R14 or change to bigger rim = which lead to lower profile tyre which also then let me to have more choice like Michelin PS3.
