The Nitto NT420V is a premium all-season tire engineered for luxury light trucks, SUVs, and crossovers that demand confident year-round performance, a refined ride, and bold style. Debuting in 2019 as an upgrade to the NT420S, the NT420V improved upon its predecessor with enhanced aesthetics, performance, and versatility. The NT420V is available in many popular OE and plus-sizes, including LT-metric sizes for ¾ to 1-ton trucks.
Asymmetric Tread Design
The eye-catching asymmetrical tread pattern creates two distinct zones for both dry handling and wet performance, while also enabling cross-rotation for longer tread life.
- Dual Tread Zones: The non-directional, asymmetrical pattern provides confident performance rain or shine — the outer shoulder features large, continuous blocks to improve dry traction, while the inner shoulder channels away water for wet performance.
- Non-Directional Pattern: The tread's non-directional design allows for cross-rotation for more even wear and a longer tread life.
- Reduced Road Noise: Asymmetric sipe and groove count combined with a variable pitch tread block design work together to reduce annoying noise frequency peaks.
- Wet Weather Capability: Two wide circumferential grooves channel water away from the tread blocks, while the high number of inner lateral grooves provide biting edges for wet traction.
- Light Snow Traction: The NT420V can be used in light snow thanks to its asymmetrical tread pattern, all-season rubber compound, and wide grooves — however, it is not Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified and should not be used in moderate to severe winter weather conditions.
Computer-Aided Engineering
Nitto's engineers utilize computer-modeled designs for road noise reduction and to enhance dynamic contact points while driving. Advances in polymer tread compounds deliver extended tread life and improved traction on both wet and dry roads.
LT-Metric Construction
NT420V tires in LT-metric sizes are constructed to handle heavier ¾ to 1-ton trucks, including heavy-duty diesel trucks. This broad range of construction options ensures the right tire is available for everything from sport crossovers to full-size work trucks.
Nitto Quality and Warranty
The NT420V is protected by Nitto's limited manufacturer warranty for the first 25% of tread depth, then pro rata coverage down to the last 2/32" of tread depth. NT420V tires are made at Nitto's factory in Japan or at their state-of-the-art United States factory in Georgia. Whether as a factory replacement or an upgraded fitment, the NT420V delivers the bold style and all-season confidence that drivers of premium trucks and SUVs demand.
