Just came back from the tyre shop. Finally replaced my front 2 tyre from XM2 to SP Sport J5. The shop sold off another 2 sets that's why I can't change all 4.
But because of that I could also make a comparison between the J5 and the XM2.
Initial feedback was:
1. Noticeably more quiet than XM2, especially when driving on a harsh and uneven road. Maybe because the J5 has slightly softer compound than the XM2.
2. Car felt stable at speed around 100km/h (No chance to test at higher speed due to traffic)
3. Dry grip is decent. Not sure about wet though as there's no rain at the moment.
Total spending just now was RM226, free balancing, steel valve. Will replace my rear 2 this coming Tuesday. Hope my initial feedback could help some of you who are considering this tyre.

Hope to get more details from you on wet performance or high speed dry performance.
I'm considering to get 2 tyres of XM2, CD2 or Dunlop J5.
Looking for better grip on both wet and dry will be my first priority and follow by noise and lastly follow by rolling resistance.
