    Default SUV tyres for Nissan X-Trail 4x4 T32

    I have a 2016 Nissan X-Trail 4x4 T32 with a with a tyre size of 225/60r18. I've previously considered replacing the standard Dunlop GrandTrek ST30 tyres with Falken WildPeak A/T, but decided that it's probably fine to stick with highway SUV tyres since I only do occasional gravel driving (probably 5% of total distance covered per year) + I don't think it's a great idea to combine highway SUV and A/T if I only want to replace two for now. The Dunlop tyres are quite a bit more expensive than others on the market. I was wondering if anyone has experience with GoodYear EfficientGrip 2 SUV tyres for occasional gravel driving, or have recommendations for good SUV tyres for the X-Trail?

    I switched to Bridgestone's. Got them at Hi-Q

    Friend of mine has had them on his T32 for over a year and was happy with them.

    We both had Goodyears before.

    I'm happy with the Bridgestone's thus far. Have done some gravel driving and no noticeable difference to the Goodyears.

    Thanks! Can you perhaps tell me which Bridgestone tyre you went for?

    Yes, these are the A/T tyres I was referring to. They look great, I'm just not sure if I need them if I don't do gravel that much, and if it would be fine to have two A/T with two of the current Dunlop ST30, if I don't replace all 4 in one go.

    I have a Suzuki Grand Vitara (2.4 4x4) very similar spec to the Nissan X-Trail, I fitted Falken Wild Peak (235/60/18) A/T in February and so far, they are great, I also mostly only used them on tar road, but have used them on dirt roads once so far and they performed well. I paid 10K for all 4 tyres in Springs

    Good to know, thank you! Heard great things about the Suzuki Grand Vitara before.
