Ladies and Gents, I'm about to go to the dark side and purchase a new Nissan, (5 tojos till now). It's intended use is daily driver, country tourer towing a Jayco Swan off-road camper trailer with the mandatory playtime after camp is set up, most likely to be forest tracks and fire trails, gravel more often than sand. I've driven both with my camper behind and both are satisfactory in their performance. I'm interested to know which way you would be tempted to lean and why. I have my own opinions, Id like to hear others in case there are things I haven't considered.

On a more specific note, does a tyre swap to 285/75 16's from the standard 265/60's result in a reduction of performance/economy? Experience only to this part. No guesses please.

Cheers,

Hilly
