Nokian Tires is the world’s northernmost tire manufacturing company using their Scandinavian roots and values to produce tires that offer peace of mind in all conditions. Founded in 1988, Nokian is dedicated to sustainable safety and eco-friendliness across the entire life cycle of a tire. They are most well known for their specialized winter tires, but also offer all season and summer tires for cars, trucks, and SUVs.
Nokian offers tires in these categories: all-season, performance all season, all weather, performance summer, on/off road. No matter the tire, Nokian provides excellent performance and traction for all types of vehicles.
Compare the average treadwear of Nokian tires against industry average across all brands. According to the US Department of Transportation’s uniform tire quality grade (UTQG), treadwear ratings are stamped on the side of tires and refer to the expected life of a tire; with a higher number meaning a longer expected tread life. Meaning, a tire stamped 500 is expected to last twice as long as a tire stamped 250 under typical driving conditions. Read our guide to UTQG ratings.
