You might find the odd thread or two on this subject in the search area. In short, it's a can of worms and after reading several threads your opinion will be equally as good as the several thousand members who all have valid reasons as to why their tyre choice is the muts nuts. Sorry not to be more helpful, but tyres seem to be quite a subjective matter.

Depends when and where you intend to tour?

My first choice and I have had 4 sets on 3 motorhomes and a van

Michelin Alpin Winter

Then 2nd Choice

Toyo Observe Winter

But I have just ordered a set of 4 these at £324


I would suggest at least All-Season, with the M+S

You do Not Have to have Camper (CP) Tyres fitted

I would avoid Michelin X-Climate/Cross Climate. I am in a battle with a Tyre fitter and Michelin over this model. Cracked after 18 Months and few miles. Poor wet grip.

I have the same size tyre for a 4,700kg van. 121 load rating. I use Giti Maxmiller all season. Just put a set on the back after having a pair on the front for nearly a year. No issues. Van used year round from NE Scotland to S France.

Our S-Plus came with Continental Four season 2 C not CP tyres. Only just changed the fronts due to very slight perishing after 8 yrs and 35K plus miles, loads of tread left. Not bad for a 6.7Ton motorhome that we often tow a car or heavy box trailer with. The rears are not showing any perishing and have more tread but being changed due to age.
In my opinion the continentals are a good tyre that give a nice ride and are quiet on the road.
I've gone for the Conti Vancontact four season C this time.

I’ve been looking at the Nexen they seem to have good reviews for the price, it would be great to here your thoughts after fitting🤔

I am replacing Michelin Agilis Alpin. I paid £50 each for. They are now £135-£225 depending on LI

Still have good tread, but some fine sidewall cracking.

I am uprating the Tyre LI on them from 110/108 8-ply to 113/111 10-ply

I did consider Toyo Observe that I fitted to my Sprinter Van. But decided on trying the Nexens for the motorhome this time around.

Hi Kiters, Presume you're running on factory Michelin Agilis still like my Adria Matrix 2022 . . . 225x75 R16 CP 116Q 🤷‍♂️
I have found these more than adequate for general use as they are marked M&S (Mud & Snow) If you look on sidewall ! I've just about covered 10K on these and fronts half worn, with rear hardly worn, so just swapped front to rear, which should give me at least another 10-15K before due a change.
I will stick with Michelin as there's a guy in S-O-T at Halmerend Tyres (Lucas) who offers these at £135 fitted and balanced all in. Or he will post out for you, as prob a couple hours from you.

I would 2nd that.
For what it's worth, I have just swapped 4 conti Vanco campers. Thay were 7yrs old, 40k, still 3-4mm tread, no cracking at all (that I could see). Could not fault them but wanted 'all season' tyres so went with Conti van contact4season 215/75/16, 116load, these seemed a popular choice with funsters. I believe, as the name suggests, they are aimed at vans/transits etc but confident will be good for moho's too. Got them from Asda at £166 each (even found a code offering a further 5% so very pleased with that). Fitted locally, all included in cost.
