Summer "shoes" Michelin Energy XM2 — a continuation of the line of ecological tyres from the French company Michelin. Rubber designed with an eye on the operation on the roads is not the best quality. And that's why.

off-road panacea

Potholes, pits, "washboard" and other troubles on the roads are familiar to east european motorists firsthand. The panacea for them is the brainchild of Michelin with the name Energy XM2. The tyre is elastic in nature and reliably protected from unwanted deformations on bumpy roads. Its frame is made using IronFlex technology from carbon and nylon threads. In a collision with an obstacle, such a cord dissipates the impact force along the entire length of the sidewall, increasing tensile strength and preventing hernias.

The devil is in the details

In appearance, the asymmetric tyre tread seems quite ordinary. But the devil, as you know, is in the details. The fact is that the functional blocks of the tread of the model are slashed with arc-shaped lamellas, which are cut in steps. As a result, the tread is less susceptible to deformation under high-speed loads and active manoeuvring. Also, a similar structure improves tyre mileage.

Excellent adaptation

Everything is good with the model and with resistance to hydroplaning, and with softness. However, according to the results of the tests of the publication "Behind the wheel" (in 2016), it is still inferior in handling on wet roads to venerable colleagues in the tyre shop. Tests are tests, and in real life situations, the ability to “digest” bad roads will come in handy, especially if there are no movements from Avtodor in your region of residence.
