Michelin Energy XM2+

I have a Polo sedan that came with special developed Goodyears DPV1. They had AWESOME braking and very decent feedback, but were noisy, very prone to loose contact with the ground when traveling at high speeds over road imperfections and the steering response was veeery slow. This Michelin tires are awesome +Soft construction yet quick steering response +High lateral grip and very good braking in dry +Good acceleration and very decent braking in wet +VERY good at displacing very deep water (No hydroplaning) +Very comfortable +They absorbe road imperfections like nothing else, they don't loose traction over bumps - The feedback is very poor. You don't feel the imperfections but you also don't feel the tire braking traction until you already lost it. - On wet (Particularly over not asphalt roads) the lateral grip reduces a lot (As expected) but since the feedback is poor, you suddenly loose traction. Not to a dangerous level and not at low speeds. But to drive fast in the wet they surely demand an experienced driver and quick reaction. Overall the tires are very good, I qualified them high on handling because of the awesome steering response, traction and lateral grip despite it's lack of feedback. They are really hard to hydroplane on and so far I like them. If I found problems with them or they wear out too fast I'll report, so if this is my last sentence take this as definitive.
