Howdy,

I'm pretty sure microtype can't do font expansion with xelatex so you are left 
with protrusion only. I usually use it with simply

\usepackage{microtype}

and it seems to use reasonable defaults.

I must admit that I only use xelatex if I need to use a special font (I don't 
tend to use non-latin alphabets so T1 font encoding is good enough for my 
usage) and love the combination of protrusion and font expansion which makes 
documents really look amazingly ``gray''.

Good Luck,
