Noisy tyres on Nissan Qashqai – Can you recommend quieter alternatives?

I recently bought a 2007 Nissan Qashqai 2007 with Nexen 215/65/R16 tyres. I have been advised that I will need to change two for the next MoT and want to fit tyres that are less noisy. Any suggestions?

Low rolling resistance tyres such as Michelin Energy Saver. But if this is 4 wheel drive, all tyres need to be changed at the same time. If it isn't 4WD, not a problem.
