My current tyre is XM2 185/55/R16 which I have been using for quite sometime. Trying to find new tyre which the price is cheaper than XM2 and performs somewhat equal to XM2. I'm looking at Yokohama AE50 and Bridgestone ER300. Any comments about the said tyres? Please do let me know if you have other recommendation as well

Get Continental CC6 for comfy and quiet ride experience.

Get Continental UC6 for better handling.

Michelin XM2 is way outdated. This model was not refreshed for more than 10 years already.

Alright. Thanks. I see a lot of people recommend Conti UC6. Is it as comfortable as CC6?

I guess nothing beats CC6 when it comes to comfort for such a low price tyre.

If bearing, even on slow speeds I will be hearing weird noise, right?
