Michelin Energy Saver

Superb. I changed a to full set of these tyres on my A Class and its like I'm driving a different car. They are so much more comfortable, grippy and quieter than my previous Kumho/Semperit combination.

As for the energy saving characteristics - I would estimate that I'm getting c.3% better fuel consumption and as evidence, the car will rolls from stationary on even the slightest incline that it did not do before.

You will pay more for these tyres by Michelin claim that between the fuel saving and the extra road life they will cost in. I have no doubt that this is true.

Here in South Africa the roads aren’t always well maintained and you might find yourself needing to replace tires more often than you would expect elsewhere, due to potholes. I have driven through some nasty potholes and was impressed with the Michelin Energy Saver’s durability. I have never ended up with any damage to the sidewall. What impressed me even more was the wear. I have been driving with these tires for just over 100,000km (66,600 miles), mostly on motorways and at relatively low speed (approximately 110km/h or 73mph). I would suggest these tires to anyone. Only negative in my books is the cost. In South Africa the cost of the Michelin Energy Savers is in the region of R1,400 per tire, where you would expect to pay around R900 per tire for Goodyear EfficientGrip.

An excellent tire from Michelin on all surfaces. Only complaint is that its bit slippery on zebra crossings but almost every single tire i have been used had the same problem . I highly recommend this tire for Skoda Superb 2 with 2.0 TDI CR engine.

This is a first time ever I've made a review but thought the Michelin Energy savers were worth telling everyone about. My wife drives our car on a daily 45 mile round trip inc Dual carriageway, Welsh hills and around town, I was astonished to find that the mpg has increased from 54.6 mpg to 61.3 mpg. Had the tyres fitted by ATS at £345 inc vat + £4 for nitrogen fill. I recently drove on the motorway and achieved 70+ mpg. I cannot comment on road handling etc as I'm not a professional driver but I found the car to be smoother & exeptionally quieter than the cheap tyres. This is my findings & comments, I'm not a salesman or working for Michelin !!!

Bought four new Michelin Energy Savers to replace terrible Bridgestones that only lasted 10k and slipped at every opportunity. These tyres are a world apart - exceptionally quiet but very efficient when braking and cornering. The only downside is that there isn't as much feedback from the road as I had from my old tyres, but they feel very controlled even when tested through corners so it's a price I'm prepared to pay. Very negligible wear even after being driven hard for 6k miles.
