Has anyone tried both XM2 and XM2+? I wonder what's the biggest improvement between these 2 products. Is it the noise level?

Noise and wet grip improved on the xm2+ based on real driving condition. Besides that, Michelin claims xm2+ will perform as good when worn which is still left to be tested. Btw, xm2 have given me 100k mileage so I think this set of xm2+ Probably will give that long life until we can give a conclusion the Michelin’s claim.

Overall satisfied with the xm2+ and felt safer driving especially in the wet, less prone to aquaplane unless very deep puddle at high speed.

I'm thinking of replacing my rear tyres from CC6 to XM2+. My front tyres still new and just 1 year old with 15000km driven. XM2+ should be good enough as breaking on my CC6 is bad.

Safety first! If cost is a concern toyo NE03 also a good tyre for the price. Just make sure best tyres go to the rear.

May I know how does NE03 compared to CC6 and XM2+? Like in term of grip, noise etc. Thanks

Dry grip of course cannot fight Primacy 3, but it is good enough for its price. Will be able to take bends faster than average slowpoke driver in KESAS exit bends, but don't expect to use it to full throttle performance level of PS3 lah.

Wet grip adequate, Primacy 3 slightly better/PS3 way better. Definitely better than CC6. With NE03, didn't recall ABS activate at the end of subang airport road (the sharp inverse ? bend near subang KTM end) wit NE03. NE03 traction A (same class as XM2 traction A), so it is not bad.

Noise wise CC6 is quieter, at the expense of wet grip, the treads are designed for acoustics reduction but sacrificed alot of wet grip because for that price point it is entry level pricing, you can't have everything and cheap. NE03 is not
noisy.

Thanks for those info, appreciate it. Do you think it is worth the money to also replace my front tyres which are only 1 year old with about 15000 km driven?

Try ask shop to buy the used tyre and deduct it from your new tyre purchase. But dont expect they will pay good price.

Or else get the tyre to your fb marketplace

Do you know roughly how much they will pay for the old tyre?
