Currently rolling on 2017 XM2. Tread worn out and cracked liao.

2) Michelin PS3
3) Dunlop D06

Driving style: cruise driving, not racing guy, not an aggressive driver
Road drive environment: kampung road (often air naik), occasionally highway
Looking for tire: comfort and wet roads

Just get PS3 if your budget permits it. Otherwise, get the VP3 or Goodyear Assurance Triplemax 2.

With your OE size of 195/55 R15 you definitely have a lot of options what to go for.

Name                                        Tire Size        Price(RM)
Kumho Ecsta PS31                        195/55R15 150
Continental ComfortContact 6 CC6      195/55R15 150
Goodyear Assurance TripleMax 2        195/55R15 152
Toyo Nano Energy NE03                195/55R15 156
Bridgestone Ecopia EP300                195/55R15 176
Toyo Proxes TR1                        195/55R15 192
Continental UC6                                195/55R15 195
Yokohama Advan Fleva V701        195/55R15 210
Michelin Energy XM2+                195/55R15 221
Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE004 195/55R15 235
Kumho Ecsta V720                        195/55R15 250

If you previously had XM2 and wet braking is your main priority I would recommend XM2+.

Check the link below for the detail prices.
