Hi all,

I own Maruti ALTO LX 2005 model which recently completed 39,000 KM and it is on OEM MRF ZVTS tyres. For last 20,000 KM, I am getting annoyed with tyre noise when driving on Highways. Also for last few thousand km, ride quality became worsed as I can feel every stone I pass through. I always keep my tyres on OE specified tyre pressure level which is 30 psi in my case.

So I have following preference form my upcoming tyre change:--

1. Michelin XM2
2. Bridgestone Turanza ER60

Can you all guide me about the best one among them and howmuch they will cost currently. Shall I use my existing RIMS as I have no experience with tubeless tyres.

I am also attaching some snaps of my well maintained ALTO LX 2005 model (TYPE 2).

I've Michelin Energy XM2 Tubeless tires in my Honda City, noise is less as compared to any other tyre but on the other hand its sidewall is weak.
I've got cut on the sidewall twice on Bangalore's potholed roads. First I changed the tyre and second time I converted it to Tube tyre and using it as Stepney.

Below is approx. cost for Alto tires:
Michelin Energy XM2 Tubeless
Size: P 145/80R 12 74T
Price: ₹ 3,229

Bridgestone TURANZA ER 60 Tubeless
Size: P 145/80R 12 74H
Price: ₹ 3,131
