Michelin PILOT EXALTO 2 225/50 R16 92 Y N0

The tyres have excellent grip in corners. No other tyre gives such grip (I have tested several others on other cars). The great advantage of Michelin tyres is that, after more than 50% tread wear, they still retain their driving characteristics (unlike other tyres). This is my second set of summer tyres and I dont expect changing my choice for my next purchase, although there are, of course, drawbacks: the wide tyre slips a little on ruts. The Michelins are a little noisy. They could do a bit better on the water, but they are still good. I also had to "test" them on snow and I can say that I was pleasantly surprised. The car drove better than I expected. Any loss of control was easy to predict and therefore easy to eliminate. Read more Collapse

The tyre is certainly not bad. But the price seems to be high - you would expect above-average properties and here it is just ordinary. I have ridden on various Kumho and Fulda tyres, and I have to say that in the dry the Kumho beats this tyre to the punch. This tyre has an unpleasant tendency to deepen a curve and does not hold direction as well as the aforementioned, but the wet performance is a plus. Interestingly I probably would never buy Kumho by choice, but I have bought a car with them. All in all a good tyre but no revelation, there are better ones. Read more Collapse

At the time of purchase they were praised as top of the range, I put them on in the spring for the second season, in April I noticed the first bulge. The warranty was not accepted, of course it was my fault, now I noticed the second one on another tyre, I checked the rest and found it on the third tyre. I understand that you can damage one, well two tyres, but three? Either I don't know how to drive or they are not sensational, before I had goodyers and there was no problem (50000 miles).

After 800 km, the tyres have radial run-outs which sometimes give vibrations on the steering wheel - Michelin sees no problem with this. The tyre is definitely not worth the price the manufacturer is asking. The tyre is not suitable for high performance cars, if only because of the construction of the rim (it is worth comparing with the Pilot Sport 2 or even with the Uniroyal RS2). I do not recommend it - the quality is much below the price (the Bridgestone ER300 is better). Read more Collapse

60.000 Kms on the front axle and the rear axle can do another 10.000 really surprised by the efficiency of this type of tyre in all weather and with a sport driving the most part of the trips I drive especially at night largely above the authorized speeds and on secondary road thus pavement not always soft for the tyres really Michelin made here a super product I hope that it will not stop it immediately because I will remain loyal to them.
