Nokian Outpost AT

Good stuff, but it says that 'D' is not used.


Wet grip is my main indicator due to the crappy roads and weather that we have. I typically pic the best wet handling tire from reviews are places like TireRack.

Like I said way above, I did get screwed in the past buying a new tire that didn't have long term feedback. Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S that absolutely lost all wet traction before half of the tread was gone on daily driven / garage kept cars.

 

Quite true, but it is my own indicator barring other info.

 

Just looking at the tread design, it's probably on par with most ATs.
The ziz-zaggy longitudinal groove and noise blocks are working against wet performance.

 

I hope it is good, at least.


I was surprised that the Wildpeaks were noticeably better than the stock PoS Toyo A30s. Of course, OEM tires tend to be like that since the Firestone / Exploder days.


Wow, though. The AT review list has grown significantly since I got the Wildpeaks:

@Solduios
Can you confirm if they are U.S. made(Tennessee)?

 

Made in Russia

 

Ok I weighed a tire and it is 40lbs +/- 0.2. I have a very accurate scale at work. I get them installed today.

 

Thank you!

So, about 2.5lb more than the chart that @splitbolt posted. Interesting.

That is still 4lb less than the chart for my 265/70R17 SL Wildpeaks. I didn't get a chance to actually weight them as they were delivered to the shop.

 

First impression are very impressive. Super quiet much better than the factory tires. I will give updates when possible. Just busy

 

Nice!

I am looking forward to your updates and will need tires before fall kicks in.

 

My Toyo's are listed at 40lbs. (265-70R17 SL) So on par with these.

 

I think they look pretty good!

 

Any updates after the first month with them Solduios?

Still trying to decide if I want these or the Toyo's

 

I had Nokians on my 2012 before I got totaled. Great all around tire especially in wintersnow with 2WD. I am looking to put these on my wife's crosstalk this fall

Dammit! These just dropped to $178 on Amazon. I snagged some:

Hopefully they are the new Wildpeaks.

 

The tires arrived wayy earlier than expected. They weighed in at 44lb average, same as the Wildpeak spec listing. Never actually weighed the WPs. Damn though, the wet traction is gone.

Unfortunately, these Nokians are the Made in Russia versions, but at least it was a late last year date code.

I jacked the axle to get an accurate alignment, but I noticed later that the perspective was completely off in that first pic. Getting them mounted later today.

 

Damn, I wish it came in a 33" 255 pizza cutter tire...……………………….

 

Yeah. A couple popular sizes are not there. Maybe they will expand.


I'm just holding my breath to see what wear and traction is like when worn. Getting at least 50k out of a set of tires is a nice feeling.
