Continentals CC range are comfortable tires that wear quite fast. Quiet but soft-compound.
I've had bad experiences with Falkens. They wear pretty quick but don't provide much comfort overall.
Yokohamas (c-Drive) are a good balance between comfort and durability. On a shoestring budget, I might aim for the Yokos. But that's just me.
*
cant say the same bout c drive, however c drive 2 are the softest and worst durability when compared to cc5 (cant say the same with falkens since i've yet to experience them and i probably dont plan to lol)

Better review abuot Michelin XM2... cause worth buying...
*
when it comes to performance only, ATR sport 2 will absolutely destroy the XM2.

you're comparing achilles top of the line street tire and Michelin's basic tire?
and guess what, Achilles is still cheaper than Michelin.

Cause Michelin PS3 are not just Performance.. it is consider at the range of Performance + Comfortable.. That why ... It can be good in cornering, and it also can provide comfortable, and the last point, it also help saving petrol consuption as well...
*
then why you recommended XM2?

when it comes to good cornering, care to elaborate?
you do know ps3 sidewall damn soft and people that hard corners won't like it right?

and you sure PS3 help save petrol?

Suggest you to take Michelin PS3 as I believed, the price difference between them are less than RM50.
I tested Michelin PS3, confidently said, PS3 is very good in grip on Dry or Wet.
*
afaik for that size, ps3 is in the 260-290 range.
c drive 2 is in the 200-230 range.

per piece sure, it isn't that much, x4 then it adds up.

in comparison, c drive 2 would be slightly better in nvh/LRR (yes LRR is advertised although it didn't have euro ratings)
ps3 would be better on the performance end (dry/wet grip and traction)
