My vote goes to XM2+ . XM2 gave me 115k km usage .

No, it wasn't at the limit yet .
The 115k km was with a residual thread depth of about 2-2.5 mm .
According to tyre manufacturers , I could have gone on further to residual 1.6 mm thread depth .
Tyre age then was about 6.5 years . It is good up to 10 years , according to tyre manufacturers .

Yes, some tiny 2-3 mm long but shallow 'cracks' on the edge of 70,000 -75,000 km XM2 tyres .
But that is of no concern to me for subsequent 40,000 km or more usage .

Getting bulge ? That is obviously a clear indication of manufacturing defect and hence of poorer quality .

Previous XM2 with 115K km.
Presently XM2 has about 75K km, and going .

In full compliance with Tyre Manufacturers recommendation and world's national authorities requirements .
