Also, I have just checked with my Bridgestone dealer and they recommended Dueler A/T 694.
The guy said they are much better then 687, but as quite and should last at least 50k.

Doing some research now, so far so good:
I ended up with the Bridgestones 694's, they looked too good on paper and
reports not to give them ago,talk about comfortable and so very quiet,I
think Bridgestone has put a lot of research and technology into these tyres
and has hit on something here,the most impressive tyre I've ever
had.....oh..and I looked for that small 693 on the side wall of my tyres and
there's no mention of 693, just a small 694,maybe you were looking at the
693.

Maybe you should take a closer look at the 694(the 694 is equivilent to the
Revo in the U.S ), nothing like a 693


Cheers

I think you will find that most forum members either have the Duelers or the Michelin CrossTerrains (I have the 235-70-16 models) and those have been great tires, however we have also heard good things about the Duelers.

I look at those Dunlops on Tire Rack and looking at the specs, you are probably better off with the Duelers if that is what you want in my opinion.

Thanks a lot. I think I will go with 694 which is Dueler Revo in States.

At the moment I have 215/70/16. Should I stick with that size or change it?

I remember that in the many countries in Asia where the Harrier is sold that the 215 width is standard if I am not mistaken, but I would highly prefer a 225 or 235 if available.
