having this xm2 on my myvi for a year and half, around 20k km.. so far i am satisfied. happy with the grip and it is cutting thru the water puddle like hot knife on butter. Just dont expect UHP tire performance and you are good to go.

follow up feedback for this tire

this tire is really hard lol
after 10k km, the threads still look like new(rotate once). hardly any wear
altogether, i have done 20k km with it on. if you ask me would i buy it again if i have the chance? it is a yes from me. It is a well balanced eco tire, low rolling resistance, above avg wet dry grips, quite resistance to aquaplaning as it cut thru puddle like hot knife thru butter, long thread life(expect to last at least 60k - 80k for me from my judgement). what's the downside?????? $$ lor..

Using XM2 on Almera. Changed in 40k in 2015 and current mileage is 70k 2017 yet the thread looks new especially for the rear. Looks like this tires are made to last long despite hard cornering and long distance driving.

yes, xm2 is known for its low tread wear.. but looks like u nv rotated the tire after driving 30k? should do that

My previous pair of XM2 was replaced after almost 6 years and 115,000 km use with tread depth balance of about 2 mm.

so sad my XM2 on my myvi started to show sign of dry rot.. recently making noise when turning multistorey car park. to me a sign of losing grip easily.. even after B&A done.. Cracked and peel at outer rib, both front and rear... 3 years.. 35k KM.. only.. rotate every 9 or 10k KM.. pump to 230kpa monthly. not an aggressive driver.. do not think is user problem.

that is normal to xm2 i guess
i also have that issue and i drive slow.. most of the time traffic crawl to work

i checked my colleague xm2 also having this issue too.. the car was mostly driven by her mom before she started to work
