    Hello everyone. My driving style is calm, 99% of driving is on highways and city/country roads. I need quiet tires for the whole year, which would work well on snowy/slippery packed/wet (in the rain) roads. I know that for snow - there are winter tires (Bridgestone), for example, for wet roads - summer highway), but I need tires for all seasons (one set). At the moment, OAE Bridgestone Dueler H / T 265/60/20 tires are installed, they are quiet, soft, economical - but after reading the forum, I learned that they are ineffective on snow and wear out quickly without much mileage. I considered Nokian Outpost AT 275/60/20 115 H tires, but since the model is new, there are few reviews, and there are none in Canada. (I will be grateful for advice and recommendations.

    +1 on Defenders - so smooth - long lasting and silent yet rugged enough to off-road in light to moderate conditions and will handle light to moderate icy/snowy conditions. Not cheap yet the good stuff rarely is.

    I suggest the Defender LTX M/S for your type driving. https://www.michelinman.com/auto/tires/michelin-defender-ltx-m-s2

    I have the Bridgestone Duelers that came with the truck. They are horrible in the snow. I will also say the Michelins. They came (years ago) on my Ridgeline. They were great in all weather, including snow. When they needed to be replaced, my wife put on Bridgestone Duelers. They were horrible. When they needed to be replaced I went back to the Michelins.

    I was at the end of my spending limit when I bought the truck or I would have asked the dealer to swap our the Duelers.

    You have mentioned these tires a couple times now and I had to check them out.
    Looks like a great tire that even outperforms Michelin Defenders.

    I'll have to see if Tire Rack has any video reviews on these tires. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Because you asked about the Nokian Outpost NAT’s… I’ve been running them for almost 20k miles. They are phenomenal. Everywhere. They are very quiet but not silent like a highway tire. Handling is exceptional. Traction in inclement weather and off pavement far exceeds what I expect an AT tire to do. Snow traction is great and I use them year round.

    That said, they may be a little aggressive for your use case if you are looking at highway tires. If you are looking at AT’s, they are top shelf, IME.

    Thanks for the detailed review. What size are you? Nokian 275/60/20 115H and weight 46.30lbs (there are also LT, but they are heavier)
    The agony of choice) Between Michelin and Nokian I checked several online stores - none of them are available at the moment

    Lt275/65r18 on the tundra soon to be Lt285/65r18 (long story..), P275/65r18 on the sequoia.

    I’ve had to wait a week or so for all three sets to show up after ordering them through my local tire shop. Part of the long story is I needed a replacement tire but they were backordered because Nokian was running batches of snow tires at the time. I bought a new set of different tires intending to split up the Nokians as spares. I contacted Nokian direct about the tire and they sent one out (free under warranty). The second sett of tires I purchased were very disappointing so I had the tire shop swap them out when the replacement Nokian showed up, then order a set of Nokians in a different size in place of the new set I had purchased.
