If you love driving fast, should look for UHP tires.

XM2 only can provide comfort & long life span, the rest better look others.

Toyota Vios original 16in is using either 195/50/R16 or 185/55/R16 tires.
If not mistaken Michelin only got XM2+ tires only. No PS3,4,5 series for this size.

Another option is upgrade the size to 205/45/R16, this got PS3 series but you need to consider your sport rim width.

https://tiresize.com/tiresizes/205-45R16.htm
Min Sport Rim width need Wheel : 16" x 6.5-7.5"

As usually original sport rim is very thin/less width to support bigger tires. Just imagine your current small feet (sport rim width) wearing a big oversize shoe, how the effect when running fast?

1st confirm sport rim width, if within 6.5-7.5" width than can upgrade 205/45/R16

2nd consider upgrading wider sport rim or bigger size like 17" and use 205/40/R17 tires, this got PS5 tire option

Golden rule of changing different size is never exceed the 3% diameter rule. Once out of that, not only speedometer will run, fuel consumption, safety related like ABS/VSC and suspension geometry also will impact due to different tire size, car height and also tire weight.

Nowadays cars with all those electronic safety system are calibrate and set at manufacturer side using factory fitted tires. If your ride got ADAS system, bigger tires also will cause overall car height change and need to recalibrate the ADAS system.

A lot of tire shop dont even care about this, as in the end once paid and drive off the shop is your own risk already.

Sent for recalibration, this is where they reset the ADAS system to match the latest height.
Currently most can only be done at certified SC, maybe some glass replacement shop can do it also.

FYI, if your ride still got warranty better go outside and ask. As once SC knew you modified your ride, take pictures and submit in system gg related warranty.

Anything also can happen in few months. Just be careful.

Answer to you is no, xm2+ is damn old model already. Nowadays Michelin is like iPhone, damn expensive due to branding while the performance:value ratio is no good compare to competitors like Falken, Hankook, Goodyear. If you really like Michelin, then go buy but if you ask me worth or not i say no especially this low end model.

All the tires model i listed in my previous post are value for money depending on preference.

Bro, only above 16 inch bigger size only got for certain models, especially VP4
Please confirm your tire size with respective website before asking it.

UC7 if not mistaken is for local asian market, it is consider a direct competition with XM2+, if you ask me for sure i will recommend UC7 over XM2+ as Michelin really a rip off nowadays.

Bro, your 17inch is original Vios? Still got warranty or no more? Personally if still got warranty stick to original sport rim & tire size.
I already got friend power steering warranty gone case due to change of aftermarket sport rim.
