Nissan X Trail Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the Pirelli Scorpion Winter given 86% (225-55-19-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 45000 average miles
Our Nissan Xtrail (2020) is, since new, fitted every winter with Pirelli Scorpion winter tires. They have a good and comfortable road feel, very good dry grip and handling, good on snow at higher speeds (German Autobahn) and truly excellent in the wet where we can maintain higher speeds even in a downpour. Only slight downside is higher wear (compared to the Goodyear Efficient Grip summer tires). The Pirellis are now just below 4mm of tread depth and will be replaced soon, either with the currently mounted Scorpions or the Scorpion 2's.

Writing about the Vredestein Ultrac Satin given 59% (225-55-19-)
Driving on mostly town for 20000 easy going miles
Fitted to a Nissan X-Trail 7 seater. They have lasted well, the fronts stayed on the front for the life of the tire and we've had 20,000 miles out of them, down to the UK legal limit (1.6mm). The rears still have about 4mm left, however are perishing after 4.5 years, where the tread meets the sidewall they are cracked all round. They're still an MOT pass, however I think they'll probably fail next year.

I'd rate these tires as good value. At the time I bought in 2018 they were slightly cheaper than any premium brand. First impressions were very good, however grip did worsen over the years, it seems the tires get quite a lot harder as they wear down. Wet grip under braking has always been good, even when worn low, so safety for a family car has overall been very good. However wet grip cornering has been fair to poor. Fine for everyday driving where we live (outer London), but not so good if you regularly drive fast twisty A roads. Grip under acceleration on our front wheel drive (open diff) car has also been fair to poor in both wet and dry.

Noise was a minor issue, perhaps more to do with the car than the tires. However moving to Goodyear now I've noticed they're quieter and have a less intrusive sound on motorways. The Vredestein's are more for comfort than for performance, however the noise does let them down a little. Handling and feedback are not strong points for these tires, as expected.

Overall a good choice if they're around 15-20% cheaper than a premium brand, however I found spending slightly more recently got us a better tire (however only 1000 miles driven).

Writing about the General GRABBER SNOW given 80% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 4000 spirited miles
Feel obliged to leave a review for these as I was very impressed. I ran them on my xtrail in a scottish highland winter and they were excellent. Snow grip was phenomenal. I took the jeep into the woods near mine and off road on steep hills and muddy snow covered roads it didn't stick anywhere. I did numerous hill starts to push them and it just took off no problem. This is in an suv with no diff locks or such just a basic 4wd system. Really really impressed. They are soft so would recommend having a 2nd set of wheels like I do for summer. Wet grip in the mild, was OK but not the best, but when the temperature gets lower the performance is felt greater. Would Defo buy again for winter tires.

Bought them last may (2018) and they were used until it was legal in season (mid Nov 2018). About 8000 spirited KM's. Drive on dry is close to some of those more expensive brands...wet....since was not sure in the grip, was not too much in "testing" modd and drive was more calm, but tire response was really good....so, I can not judge about limitations on wet. Wear is really low, as millage spent on them, this year maybe shows more. Definitely more trust in tires this autumn.

Driving on mostly town for 2000 spirited miles
Bought them late last year after GoodYear tires in the same size which came to end of their life. After a few 1000 Kms had to replace them with winter ones but since winter was not that strong in our area this year, they were back on vehicle (Nissan X-Trail, 4x4, 2005) early. Since I drove mainly premium brands before, this was taken as experiment with this class and I can say that I'm pretty satisfied all around with these tires. Dry grip is great and you can trow car on curvy roads same as with premium brand. Had a few "critical" situations in town, out of which one on traffic light when other car came from red light line. Fun part was summer shower and middle of junction....pedal to the metal and car moved without causing slide or any uncontrollable maneuver, escaping side hit. will see at the end of this season about wear.
