Re: **What Tyres Do You Have?** Reference Poll Thread
A. My tyres are Pirelli Scorpion S/T 215/65R16.
B. 70% road 30% off-road.
C. Cost was $862 fitted & balanced for set of 4.
D. I chose these tyres because I wanted a tread pattern between a H/T and A/T to maintain the best of H/T for sand driving but give a little extra grip like A/T in other Off-road driving.
There is a little road-hum but not distracting.
Road grip seems better than the original Bridgestone 689 H/T and the ride harshness has not increased.
Due to other performance mods like Full exhaust upgrade I have not been able to define any fuel impacts.
Admin Edit: Original Tyres on the xtrail are Bridgestone 689s (not 694). Information Corrected

Re: **What Tyres Do You Have?** Reference Poll Thread
A. Nexen N3000 (245/45/18), 100Y Load Rating
B. V type directional symmetrical aqua groove designed specially connecting from center to shoulder part.
C. $245 each
D. Great on-road performance in both dry and wet conditions. The wider profile gives much better handling especially around corners. Impact on fuel consumption is slightly better than my previous BFG All-Terrains. Good performer for the price and will probably buy again depending on the tyre life.
E. Tyre Review 1 ; Tyre Review 2
