C# immutable object usage best practices? Should I be using them as much as possible?

Say I have a simple object such as

class Something
{
   public int SomeInt { get; set; }
}

I have read that using immutable objects are faster and a better means of using business objects? If this is so, should i strive to make all my objects as such:

class ImmutableSomething
{
   public int SomeInt { get { return m_someInt; } }
   private int m_someInt = 0;

   public void ChangeSomeInt(int newValue)
   {
       m_someInt = newvalue;
   }
}

What do you reckon?
