In past 4 years, I had a two sets of Michelin Energy Saver+

First one I had from april to november of 2021, I bought a used set of 4 for only 30 Eur, three tyres were manufactured in 2017 and one in 2018. They were 185/65 R15, two had about 3-4 mm and other two about 5-6 mm tread depth left. I just needed something cheap, for one season on a cheap daily car, because car was on some 20 years old Bridgestone's. So 5 years old Michelin's for 30 Eur, in that case, looked like a far better option.

Second one was bought in early spring of 2023, I have it and use it until this day. Second set are 195/55 R15. I bought a full set for 120 Eur, tyres were made in Poland, was with around 6.5-7 mm tread depth, and without any signs of previous repairs. All in all - looked like a great choice, because for that price, I couldn't buy even any of the cheapest sets. Brand new Michelin Energy Saver+ in this size was around 140 Eur per tyre or around 550€ per set. So 120 Eur for a set of used, but great condition premium tyres? Just perfect.

Dry - they are great for dry roads, feels stable, have plenty of grip.
Wet - I use them more carefully on wet roads, especially after reading tyre tests and people reviews that they are a little weaker in the wet. But in my experience there wasn't any unpleasant moments or aquaplaning on wet roads, even with quite low tread depth (on first set, rear tyres had only about 2-3 mm tread depth left, when I removed them in autumn to replace summer wheels with a winter wheels set), maybe because of precautions and calm driving when raining outside.
Road feedback - knowing fact, that they aren't oriented for super sharp or sporty driving and they are just a premium touring tyres - feedback is good enough.
Handling - is great on dry roads, on wet roads I use tyres more carefully, especially carefully was used a first set with quite low tread depth, but still - handling was safe enough even in wet conditions.
Wear - I would say it's 10/10, but I had experience with a two different sets, so more deeply:
● First set of tyres were 185/65 R15, DOT 2017-2018, had only 3-4 mm tread depth on rear and 5-6 mm on front, but after full summer season and about 8000 km - it was still about 2-3 mm tread depth left on the rear and about 4-5 mm left on the front, that was a late autumn of 2021 and tyres were manufactured in 2017 (one tyre in 2018, I guess one, from original set, was damaged unrepairable, so previous owner bought one new tyre to complete a set), and 3 of 4 were started to show some cracks on sidewalls. Front ones was still usable, but I decided not use any of them at all.
● Second set of tyres were bought used too, 195/55 R15, DOT 2020, made in Poland, all tyres had around 6.5-7 mm tread depth when I bought them in march of 2023. After two seasons and around 15'000 km I measured tread depth of them a month ago and there are still around 5-5.5 mm left. Because they are assimetric, I rotate them after every summer season, I pick two (with more tread depth) for front axle and two (with less tread depth) for rear axle, I have found that this method works out best to achieve even wear, because front tyres on FWD cars, even without any wheel spins, wears out a little bit quicker. Tyres are more than a 4 years old now, but I can't see any noticable signs of cracking, so I will continue using them in the future summers.
Comfort - how it was on my first set, it's same and on my second set - they were and they are very quiet and not too hard, I should say - well balanced in terms of hardness and quite comfortable overall.

In my experience - tyres are great in dry, good enough in wet, predictible in handling and gives enough road feedback, also very long lasting and not noisy at all. I bought my first set quite accidently and didn't knew what to expect from them, but even 5 years old used tyres - were very comfortable, very quiet and quite good overall. So, when I saw my second set, which was only slightly more than 2 years old, with tread depth of almost a new tyre - I knew that they will be even more perfect. And honestly - those Michelin's were (and still are) greatest summer tyres, that I had in my entire life.

P.S. don't forget to wash your wheels regularly.

Very dangerous on wet roads. Lost control because of aquaplaning while driving with normal speed on a relative open corner of a mountain road, resulting to a light crash thanks to the low speed I was driving in that occasion. The tires are about 50% of their initial tread depth. Most of the tires I have used would have made the corner easily at a considerably higher speed, but unfortunately Michelin's Energy Saver Plus failed in the most ridiculous way!

It's behavior, while good on dry roads, is really unpredictable on wet.

A real disgrace for Michelin. Avoid it at all costs if you drive on wet roads, for your own safety!

Very quiet and comfortable, good braking on wet and dry. Moderate handling. Good fuel economy, very good wear. But sidewalls are very soft and poor. Price is very high.

Very good tyres in wet and dry roads. Low noise and very comfort.

OE on a 2015 Citroën C3 1.2 PureTech. Not the best Michelins imo The big problem with these is the dry rotting of the whole tyre. It's pretty bad. Grip is normal, as expected from a Michelin. I can't recommend them because of the dry rotting problem.

So, after 33,000miles/53.000km I can say a few things about these tyres. +Really good on wearing slowly +Comfortable +Good mileage +Great for average driving +Stable even at 170+km/h/105miles/h +excellent at dry grip/breaking +pricing -not for sporty driving -not stable if worn in wet roads -a bit bumpy when curving -might lose grip if pushed after a couple of dozens of thousands of miles. A great choice of touring tyre for sure.

excellent dry grip,just average on wet thought.

I bought a set of used ones in decent condition and i must say that the dry grip was superb! Even on hard cornering at highway speeds the tires have great traction and the car felt secure, I was really impressed about how good they were on dry conditions, didn't expect that coming. They were also very comfortable probably due to the sidewall size (175/65/14) also the braking on dry roads again was good enough. But i was really disappointed about the wet grip of the tires. On high speeds with moderate rain the car didn't felt secure at all and on corners i really had to brake a lot not to get off the road! Also on hairpin turns at slow speeds the tires aquaplaned and it was really scary, unacceptable! Last but not least i was again disappointed a little about the wear as only after 300 km i noticed they were not in the same condition, maybe it was due to the fact they were already used and 4 years old and the treadwear was at the end of its life and they wearing out faster than normal i dont' know for sure...Finally the fuel efficiency was another disappointment as Michelin sells these tires as "energy saver" and i was expecting a better gas mileage from a tire rated C on fuel.

michelin energy saver tyres, on 3 rd set of tyres and covered 38000 miles each time down to 2mil approx, type of driving 6000 miles local, 3000 further afield travel, have bought budget tyres over the years but false economy

I have done over 100'000 km in these tyres are they still have loads left in the thread. However the side walls are starting to become cracked with age, they have just headed 5 years old. I am going to get the same tyres again because they were so good, hopefully the new ones will last another 5 years and then i will have a new car! Overall they are worth it because you get so long out of them, also great performance and very comfortable.

Treadwear 400, Traction A, Temperature A

One of the most outstanding tyres I have ever used.

Dry grip is phenomenal.

Wet grip is adequate for most normal driving conditions.

Road feedback, comfort and handling are on par with the everyday use orientation of the tyre.

Wear is simply amazing. The tyre loses 0.5mm of tread evey 10.000km.

What is worth commenting is the tyre's performance throughout its lifespan. Even after 80.000km, with still 3.2mm of tread left, it performs the same as new. Almost same comfort, same noise, almost same dry and wet braking, and that is probably the best argument why to buy this tyre. Reliable, efficient and same performance for around 80.000km. Of course, it could go beyond 100K to reach the legal limit, but what's the point?

I have those tyre on my Golf Mk7 for last 40,000 km. They don't wear, I would easily get another 40,000km out of them. I do drive hard and like to take corners also hard. Over all the tyre is good, but I find it very loud on motorways. Its also no where near ContiSportContact 6 for handling in the wet. Ill be going back to Continentals for my next tyre. But overall, tyre is good and exceptionally good at not wearing. Would be ideal for Taxi's.

I have around 30k km with the tyres, with plenty of tread left. Personally I push the tyres quite a lot, and I didn't have any real issue with this tyre, especially with it's category and price. I have even driven on snow, where of course it's slippery, but drivable. Would recommend them for casual use, but if you want something more aggressive and high performance, I would look somewhere else.

Good tyre all round for my 10,000 miles on them. On an EV they break loose on full excelleration on dry summer road around 17°c . They spin for 1 Sec over taking but slight adjustment and they feel really well sure footed . Tbis mus the the compromise between low rolling resistance to their touting primacy tyre.
Never let me down under city braking in slot on emergency brake tests with pedestrians. Not once did abs kick in.
So all in all a good tyre as you don’t notice them then they are good.
Only one spin out under load when grrip goes light under hard acceleration from a torqued ev Nissan Leaf .

I have these tyres, the Energy Saver + for 4.000km and before i have the same tires, but then the normal version of it. The normal Energy saver.
My english is nog as good as some people espect, but i do my best.

At first i want a performance tyre cause i drive sportive, my car is a Alfa Romeo 147 140hp JTD, but a few days later i realize i want tyres where ecofuelly. Cause i drive 40.000km in one year, it save's fuel and also money.
The day i put them on my car, the first corner i thought damn, these tyres are excellent when driving, steeringwheel is much easyer and lighter. The previous tyres (normal energy savers) the steering becomes a bit heavy, but now it's easy to steer to right or left.

I can't say anything about wear but i have much confidence in Energy Saver+

Also good dry and wet grip. It's not a performance tyre but if you drive normal and not like a fool or something, you have always a safe feeling, even when it rains hard and much aquaplanning on the road, always a safe feeling and a lot of feedback what you doing.
