Toyota RAV4 Tyre Review Highlights

I understand it's an AT tire but it's very uncomfortable and jarring to drive compared to my Yokohama geolander g015 AT tires I ran before. The snow performance was a disappointment, I definitely don't think these can stay on all winter if you're living in a snowy area. That said, dry grip has been very impressive, and they feel very sure footed and handle confidently. No issue with wet traction either.

I have driven pretty fast om turns, and the tires griped the dry pavement very well. This is my second set of Grandtrek st 30 tires, and I never heard the tires screech on either set. On wet pavement the car moves slightly to the left or right when I drive over big puddles of water. The tires have great traction in the rain. The first set of tires lasted 74k miles. The 2nd and current set of Grandtrek st 30 tires has 38k miles.

Great tyre! I was very satisfied with wet and dry grip on Toyota RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid. Tyre was also very communicative on the edge and I felt very safe while driving it. There is one big disadvantage and that is wear. They lasted only about 16000 km /10000 miles (on 2,2 ton SUV). Also I didn´t do any off-roading with it, so I can´t comment on that.

Really solid tyres, I didn't expect them to be good through snow however they performed very well. But they're even better on dry and wet roads.

I bought these tyres +10mm in width than for the standard RAV4 hybrid for a bargain (235/60R18 where stock is 225/60R18). I've always wanted AT tyres for the looks and for the occasional offroading but honestly more for looks and durability. I've read and seen so many positive views so it was a no brainer.
Performance in the wet was as good as any regular tyre. I hadn't pushed it much but the car didn't feel skittish or unsettled even when the tyre store pumped in 42psi when I left the store.
Road noise is to be expected over a passenger style tyre. Being a RAV4 hybrid, with no engine running, you'll hear a bit of the tyre roar more than a passenger tyre. Don't believe anyone that says it's as quiet but at the same time, it's not noisy at all and you've got to be listening for the roar to notice it. Put it this way, the family travelling in it hasn't noticed.
What I was surprised by was the roughly 6.x mm of legal tread measured in multple areas (ranged from 6.1mm to 6.5mm). I was expecting a bit more tread any even with the 680 A A UTQG, I'm not sure how long this will last but hopefully it proves me wrong.
Also I was surprised by the weight of the tyre. Sure it's more but I did notice the acceleration performance dull slightly but it's an AT tyre and to be expected and I went up in size. Fuel consumption has so far taken me to 5.8L/100km on the freeway. Perhaps +0.2-0.3L/100km.
Would I do it again, at the AUD$205 each, yes every time when the G015 and Open Country AT3 was A$260-280 each.

Basic tyres which came from the dealer. Lasted 80.000 km easily. Good traction control but very very noisy.

Good grip both in dry and wet conditions, pretty comfort, road noise is mild to a bit loud.
Will definitely re-buy again.

I wore out a set of these tires in 40,000kms (25,000miles). I had my tires rotated every 7000kms when my vehicle was in for scheduled maintenance intervals. They are by far the worst tires I have used. My wife expressed to me on several occasions how she feels unsafe with them. They do not instill confidence to the driver and make you pucker up for every wet bend or snowy turn. I will not be buying these or any other nokian product again.

These tyres have been fitted to my Toyota Rav4 for the last few years.
I choose Bridgestones over the Cross climates for the comfort, wet performance and lower rolling resistance.
Good-
Assured in the wet and dry, very comfortable, not found the limit of grip yet.
Bad-
Tyres started cracking around the tread blocks within 12months, louder than expected on the road, snow performance best described as lacking (short of what I'd expected).
Verdict-
Wouldn't buy again, would pick quieter tyres next time with better cold weather performance.

These tires are terrible. Down to 3mm in just 10 000 km on a Hybrid Toyota Rav4. They got very hard and very loud in two winters. Dangerous on snow and ice. Would not recommend.
