Tyre Selection: XM2 vs Earth1 vs GY ATM vs CC5 vs ER300 vs...

Michellins are very puncture prone

This is a generalised statement.
I have used 3 sets of Michelin till now on different cars. I never faced puncture proneness. Also I didn't suffer due to side wall bulge or cut but have seen many other cars running on Michelin xm2 suffering from sidewall bulges.

Yes, I too have suggested him the Yoko Earth 1 especially if he is not fond of hard cornering.

I was using stock MRF ZVT for 77k kms until i changed to Earth 1 tires. Dramatic difference in handling, noise, etc. Would recommend this. Now waiting for long term usage report. Already has run 15k kms and no issues so far.

Drove a friend's Polo who has CC5 and boy o boy it transforms the vehicle. It has so much grip that car does not wheelspin or when it brakes, abs does not kick in because the tires stop the car before. Loved this tire also. Longitivity cant say now but will report over time.

thanks for the reply i want to know like i have driven the oem goodyear tyre for around 2500 will i get some money for them or not?

Agreed, however the harshness will disappear after 10 k km.

Yes.. I am hoping for the same.. My city with CC5 is now too harsh on undulated roads and uneven concrete roads... But on smooth roads, it is awesome with enough grip and good braking.....

Quoted Yoko price is good, just check the manufacturing date before the dislodge your stock tires.

For used stock goodyear, 2500 to 3000 per tire should be ok. Last year new goodyear was costing 3600/tire.

Can you please post pics of the sidewall of your stock tire?

One question : are you fond of hard cornering?

Yup definitely. Can you elaborate more about precautions? And thanks for suggestion.

For first 500 kms speed should not exceed 80 kmph. That's the running time required to brush off the protective oily layer from the tire surface so that tire does not skid upon hard braking, especially in wet conditions.

Hello Guys,

I have recently upgraded the my Ritz to R15 alloys with Michelin XM2 185/60 R15. i have driven it 1500+ kms excellent tyres with comfort.I see drastic change in the handling and braking.

My car fuel efficiency is increase and 90% road noise is arrested....no words only a big smile on the purchase.Best tyres in the market worth on every penny you spent.

Continental has introduced UC6 & CC6, if you have got them do post a review here.
From there website, it looks like CC6 are next gen cc5, and are comfort tyres.
UC6 are looking like performance tyres.

From their earli
