Sometimes your tires must work in two totally different worlds – on a fast highway as well as on a rocky construction site or a muddy forest road. Nokian R-Truck is a complete line of truck tires for on and off-road use, combining good highway properties with grip, sturdiness and self-cleaning needed in off-road work.
Read MoreThe Nokian R-Truck product line is designed with safety and reliability in mind. Their casings are made with high-quality materials and their innovative tread patterns combine good grip on soft surfaces with excellent mileage. This ensures your peace of mind both on and off-road.
All Nokian R-Truck tires are suitable for year-round use. The tires can be mounted in the warmest summer time but on the other hand, the tires carry the 3PMSF approval, making them suitable for winter conditions.
Low rolling resistance helps to save fuel, while good mileage reduces overall tire costs. Nokian R-Truck tires are also suitable for retreading.

Cuts and punctures are a constant risk on earthmoving and construction sites. Nokian R-Truck tires have an excellent puncture resistance for the toughest of conditions.
“We drive about 9 kilometers downhill when we descend 1205 meters below ground level. The empty truck may have been slipping in the past, but the Nokian R-Truck holds”
Tomi Tauriainen
Tomi Tauriainen is responsible for Maakasi Oy's blasted stone hauling vehicles in the Orivesi mining site in Finland. The company has been testing Nokian R-Truck tires and equivalent Noktop treads for three years.
Tauriainen has noticed a clear improvement especially with the grip: "We drive about 9 kilometers downhill when we descend 1205 meters below ground level. The empty truck may have been slipping in the past, but the Nokian R-Truck holds."
The ground can be rocky and sharp on the construction site. Besides grip, the wear, puncture and cut resistance are the most essential properties of a tire (according to Tauriainen). “Overall, with these features, Nokian Tyres defeats its competitors.”
Tauriainen recommends the tire for dump trucks for mining, tunneling and crushing sites – but also for road transport: "In some cases, 30 kilometers on-road driving may be too much for mining tires – which might not have been even approved for on-road driving. The Nokian R-Truck, on the other hand, is also suitable for the road."
