My ECO4 came with Michelin Energy Savers from the factory. However, they cost a lot and I calculated the savings I would make, and it came out that I wouldn't save anything as the tires cost so much. There are lots of bad reviews about the Energy Savers, that they don't have enough traction, performs really poorly when wet, etc. I have to balance saving FE with safety to be honest! I do have one Michelin Energy Saver already on my car, and I most definitely don't think it's the original tire.

The Efficientgrip doesn't even come in 175 sizes at all, unfortunately! The Kleber doesn't come in 175/80/14 - the nearest is 175/70/14. On tyretest.com the EcoContact 3 gets only a very slightly better review than the Toyo 350, however tyretest.com doesn't look at fuel efficiency. Tyretest.com seems to rate the Michelin Energy XT1 quite well, but I'm still put off by the cost. Best cost I could find for 4 tires of the following:

Toyo 350 - £164 ($251 €185.60) fully fitted
EcoContact 3 - £165.20 ($252.80 €187) fully fitted
Energy Savers - £274.40 ($419.90 €310.50) fully fitted

I think my best option here is the EcoContact 3's. I doubt I would save £110 ($168 €124) worth of fuel with the Energy Savers.
