Which tyres should I buy for my Nissan X-Trail?

I have just bought a used Nissan X-Trail 2.0 Dci, do you have any recommendation for make and spec of tyre?

At present the front and back pairs are different makes. The best two, which are quite new 215/60R17 96H Dunlop Grandtrek. I live in Mid-Sussex and will rarely go off road.

Grandtreks seem to work well and last on X-Trails. It's very important that the amount of tread on the tyres front to back does not vary by much and all tyres should be the same make, size and type.
