205/55 R16 V (91) for a Mondeo estate that does a fair bit of towing.

I had the Michelin Energy on my previous Mondeo TDCI hatch and was impressed with them. Long life, low noise and good economy. No experience of towing with them but they had a few trips to Spain with the car fully loaded with no issues.

I don't like Michelin energy savers on the Prius. They are noisy and harsh. But then again they are 3 years old, which leads me onto the good points - they last frigging ages. 3 years, 30k miles and they are half worn.

Next time it's getting Nokian summer tyres. They are as efficient, as long lasting, quieter and cheaper.

Bloody well should be sorry.

At least the "w" element isn't mentioned.

Had the Michelin energy savers previously, seemed ok.
