Bro, first of all did you knew this 3 tires are from different category?
If your just normal driving, premium touring tires good enought. If really into sportier drive like always high speed cornering or highway speed demon then go for UHP. There is no perfect tires, want comfort low noise premium touring, but lack in traction/grip compare to UHP tires, while UHP is the other opposite (less in comfort/noise compare to premium touring)

Primacy 4 - Premium Touring tires

Eagle F1 - UHP tires

Centurato Rosso - Premium Touring tires

Actually, after i read Eagle F1 Sport brochure, although it is marketed as Entry UHP category, but technically it is the middle of UHP and Touring. My next tire purchase will be this.

I am interested to check whether is it better in wet breaking when compared to XM2+

Confirm better if in term of braking performance, UHP tires usually are made better in term of traction/grip which help in braking.

XM2+ is the most basic tire from Michelin, besides from long tread life nothing much advantage for me to recommend it.

I have changed 7X tires in the last 12 years for my Vios 2008 15" and 2018 16"
1. Stock Bridgestone Potenza (factory fitted)
2. Goodyear NCT5
3. Michelin XM2
4. Bridgestone Ecopia
5. Toyo T1R
6. Michelin Pilot Sport 3
7. Stock Toyo Proxess (factory fitted)
8. Michelin Xm2+
9. Dunlop Formula D06

In terms of wet braking and handling, my personal rating as follow:-
1. PS3
2. XM2+
3. XM2
4. Potenza
5. Proxess
The remaining 4 D06, T1R, NCT5 and Ecopia are equally rubbish in wet. From my personal experience, XM2/+ is better than Toyo UHP. Maybe you can share your experience.

TS, I'd gotten the Goodyear F1 sport. It's decent but I think Michelin is better. Furthermore P5 is out
