Thanks for sharing

Really appreciate it.

yeah, didnt realize that already 6 yrs hence thats why need to change soonest.

Was quoted 195 60 15 for rm240 ok or not?

juz my quick review, bout this tyre .. durability is very good. really worth money. still using it until now 5 years. performance is quite good, rainy time serve well. comfort? nope. quite hard if ur previous tyre is conti u will fell the difference. overall for me the tyre is worth.. if u r think bout money. conti 2 years max , then got side wall swollen "bengkak" my experience laa.

compare to continental,they have on of the most comort series comfort contact.usually the tyre soft a bit.

just changed 4 pcs of XM2 last weekend. 175/65/14 was quoted 190/pcs. so far performance is good, and less noise than my previous yokohama bluearth. havent tried to drive when it rains hard though.

XM2 is good for approximately 100,000km & more. Wife's car is on it's second set of XM2s.

wow 100000km is a lot

Yes. I'm impressed with it. When we changed to her second set, there was 3mm tread left on the first set Maybe good for a couple more thousand km. According to Toyota, 2mm is the absolute minimum.

... but according to Associations of tyre manufacturers, it's 1.6 mm or 1/16 inch.

It's like food expiry date lo. Can still consume few weeks after the expiry date.

hahaha..but for safety better change them

Even michelin themselves (with their vested interest), say can use up till 1.6mm safely (for their own brand of tyres though) :

“Safety is a result of overall performance, not just tread depth," said Roget. "Our tyres are designed to work right down to 1.6mm. As a result, we tell our customers that they shouldn’t replace Michelin tyres until they reach the limit. Sadly not all tyres perform in this same way. That's why we want to see a new rating system and performance standard for worn tyres."

I guess for those on michelin tyres, you can stretch your wallet further to compensate for their slightly more expensive tyres.

Noted. Learnt something new. Thanks.

I would have still changed it cos:
1) Toyota had promo at that time & it was slightly cheaper compared to what my regular shop can sell to me.
2) Tyres were approximately 3.5 years old.
3) Handling was not as good as before. Maybe it's just me. Wife mentioned the ride & handling is better after fitting on the new tyres.

Thank you for learning about UK 1989 legislation on minimum tyre thread depth at 1.6 mm.
