Our take

The Nokian Outpost NAT is a solid choice for those who value treadlife and dry grip in an all-terrain tire. With a treadlife score of 8.75 and a 60,000-mile warranty, it surpasses the category average, making it a dependable option for long-distance driving. Its dry grip rating of 7 also stands above the average, ensuring stable handling on dry roads.

In the all-terrain category, off-road traction is key, and while specific off-road scores aren't provided, the 3PMSF rating suggests enhanced capability in light snow, which is a nice bonus. However, its wet grip score of 4 is a notable shortcoming, falling below the category average of 5.2, which could be a concern in wet conditions.

When compared to competitors like the Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season, which offers better wet grip, the Outpost NAT's strengths lie in its longevity and dry performance. The Toyo Open Country A/T III and Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 might offer different balances of attributes, but for those prioritizing tread life and dry grip, the Outpost NAT remains a strong contender.

Avoid the Outpost NAT if wet grip is a top priority, especially in regions with frequent rain. Consider the Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season instead for better wet performance.

Pros

  • Treadlife score of 8.75 and a 60,000-mile warranty exceed the all-terrain category average of 55,717 miles.
  • Dry grip rating of 7 outperforms the category average of 6.6, providing reliable traction on dry surfaces.
  • 3PMSF rating ensures better performance in light snow compared to non-rated all-terrain competitors.

Cons

  • Wet grip performance is below average, which could be a concern for drivers in consistently rainy climates.
  • Wet grip score of 4 falls short of the category average of 5.2, potentially compromising performance in rainy conditions.
  • Noise level is average at best, matching the category benchmark of 5, which might not satisfy those looking for quieter rides.
  • The Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season offers better wet grip, making it a preferable choice for those prioritizing wet performance.
