Summary

Description

The Nankang AT-5 Conqueror A/T is an all-season, all-terrain tire designed for light trucks and SUVs, balancing on-road comfort with off-road capability. Its aggressive tread pattern features serrated-edge lugs, lateral notches, and siping for traction on dirt, mud, snow, and wet surfaces. A silica-enhanced compound improves wear resistance, while 3PMSF certification ensures reliable winter performance. Available in 53 sizes (15"–20" rim diameters), it targets drivers prioritizing durability and versatility.

Features & Benefits

  • 3PMSF Certified: Meets severe snow service standards for reliable traction in winter conditions.
  • Aggressive Tread Design: Five-row lug configuration with lateral siping enhances off-road grip and self-cleaning.
  • Silica Compound: Improves wet traction and tread longevity, backed by a 50,000-mile limited warranty (non-LT sizes).
  • Wet Weather Performance: Circumferential and lateral grooves evacuate water to reduce hydroplaning risk.
  • Reinforced Construction: Stabilized tread blocks and high-void design support towing and heavy loads.

Year Released

Launched in 2014, the AT-5 has been succeeded by the updated AT-5+ but remains available in select markets.

Regions Availability

Sold in North America, Canada, Russia, East Asia, the Middle East, and Oceania.

Vehicle Compatibility

Based on size availability and load ratings:

  • Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma (LT265/70R17, 265/70R17)
  • Jeep Wrangler, Nissan Patrol (LT285/75R16, 315/70R17)
  • Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, RAM 1500 (LT275/65R20, 35X12.50R20LT)
  • Toyota Land Cruiser, Mitsubishi Pajero (265/75R16, 285/70R17)

Note: Always consult a tire specialist or vehicle manufacturer to confirm fitment.

Final Thoughts

The AT-5 suits drivers needing a cost-effective all-terrain tire for mixed on-/off-road use, particularly in regions with harsh winters. Its 3PMSF certification and deep tread (14–17/32") excel in snow, though road noise is noticeable on highways—typical for aggressive all-terrain designs. While durable, the silica compound’s dry grip lags behind premium rivals like BFGoodrich KO2. The replaced AT-5+ offers improved materials, making the original AT-5 a legacy option for budget-focused buyers. Best for rural or overlanding use where off-road traction outweighs refinement.
