Tires Nokia or NANKANG

Rwd 3 here with Hakkapeliitta R5 in Finnish winter. Best winter driving experience this far in 20 years of driving.

I love my Duratracs but I gotta say I've been quite impressed with the Nokians on my wife's truck and I think I put them on my truck next time I need tires.

I have driven on winter tires by Michelin, BFGoodrich, Goodyear, Toyota, Bridgestone (Blizzaks), and nothing beats Nokian PERIOD.

Yes Nokian makes excellent tires. They’re just not as well known as the household names.

Nokian One - excellent tire.

And ever since I bought my first Nokian winter tire is that the only winter tire I use.

Find Nokian akkapellita, thank me later

Look at the NANKANG line. Start at NS2R. I use them on my Exige. But use a softer compound. If you need “more”, the AR1 are THE ones to take. But there is a new Kid on the block. NANKANG CRS. For that amount of monney, you wil hardly find a better tire.

These are the Nankang CRS tires, saw similar wear pattern from the RT660s as well (in fact that kind of just chunked away leaving rings of cords).

Hope you have a better experience with the Outpost AT’s than I did. Just pulled them off my WK2 Grand Cherokee and disposed of them after 15K. Either way had substantial cracking and dry-rotting in-between treadblocks and violent shaking that went away with new Destination AT2’s.
