Description:
|
The Destination M/T is the first Firestone light truck tire with exclusive UNI-T technology to advance wet handling and braking. With deep skid lugs, 3 body ply construction, over-the-shoulder tread/lug design and our special Rim Guard Off-Road Protector Rib, the Destination M/T is as tough and durable as it looks.
The Destination M/T (Mud Terrain) , with UNI-T technology is a great 4x4 tire designed specifically for off-road use. Suited to the most rugged Australian terrain, the Destination M/T provides an outstanding degree of stability and traction in slippery conditions. With robust casing construction and tread elements that deflect road hazards, the Destination M/T bears the toughness and durability demanded by an off-road enthusiast.
Advanced Wet Handling and braking
A rounder overall tyre shape provides better balance for wet or dry handling and a comprehensive tyre design method improves handling in wet or dry conditions and reduces irregular tread wear.
Mud and Off-Road Traction
A unique over-the-shoulder tread/lug design combined with low 23' Attack Angle increases extraction traction to help get you through ruts and mud and increases pulling power. Wide wraparound lugs and special tread element shapes and angles help deflect road hazards from the shoulder areas as well as improve self-cleaning in mud and snow conditions.
Features
Innovative Tire Design method improves handling in wet or dry conditions and reduces irregular treadwear by combining the ideal tread design, casing shape, materials and construction.
Innovative Compound - L.L. Carbon utilizes a special form of molecular re-engineered carbon black, a key factor in improving tire wear while enhancing wet performance.
Rim Guard Off-Road Proctector Rib helps protect the tire by deflecting off-road debris from between the tire bead and rim area, keeping the lower sidewall stiffer and making the bead fit tighter to the rim.
Dura-Loc 3.0 is a unique high-strength tie-in construction, combining 3 full polyester body plies, 2 high-tensile steel cord belts and a full spiral-wrapped nylon cap ply for outstanding resistance to on- and off-highway hazards.
Pinned for studs for extra grip in winter conditions.
Innovative Roundness - Rounder Is Better
Rounder overall tire shape provides better balance for wet or dry handling.
Innovative Tire Design - A Comprehensive Tire Design Method
This method improves handling in wet or dry conditions and reduces irregular treadwear by combining an ideal tread design, casing shape, materials and construction.
Mud and Off-Road Traction
The result of a unique over-the-shoulder tread/lug design that increases Extraction Traction to help get you through ruts and mud combined with low 23' Attack Angle to increase pulling power.
Wide wraparound lugs and special tread element shapes and angles help deflect road hazards from the shoulder areas as well as improve self-cleaning in mud and snow conditions.
Rim Guard Off-Road Proctector Rib
This helps protect the wheel by deflecting off-road debris from between the tire bead and rim area, keeping the lower sidewall stiffer and making the bead fit tighter to the rim.
Innovative Compound - Longer Is Stronger
L.L. Carbon utilizes a special form of molecular re-engineered carbon black, a key factor in improving tire wear while enhancing wet performance.

Installed on a 2001 Chevrolet 2500hd Great mud and snow traction - better than most. Rides very good for a mudder. Coolest looking mud tire on the market. Not as noisy as other mud tires i have had - still, not a highway tire. If you want quiet, don't buy a mudder.

Got a set on my 1991 Jeep Comanche. These tires are great! I had BFG all terrains on before, which wore very well and performed well off road, but for wet roads and severe off road were lacking, especially on wet roads. The Destination M/T are a much more at home on the road tire then I expected for a rough tread mud tire. They are even better off road, in mud, rocks, etc. My only concern might be how they wear, but I will know that better with more miles.

I have them for a month and I had to change one on the warranty last week. It was cut all the way around. I suppose it was only a bad luck because I never heard of a such thing before that hapen to me. But for the rest I like those tire.

great tire, looks tuff, gets the job done off road. a little noise on the highway but my guess is if you are looking for a M/T than you arent too worried about a little noise, in fact if you are like me you like the noise. all together this is a great tire.

Love the tires. They hum a bit at 40mph, but that goes away as your speed increases on the highway. And, they look great. get alot of compliments on how they look on the truck, and mounted them on factory polished aluminums with no problems

I am a die hard BFG KTM Mud terrain fan. I was forced to buy firestones due to my company picking up the tab at a firestone dealer that didn't sell BFG's.....WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! better all around than a BFG mud. I am VERY hard on this company truck going to NASTY jobsites (rocks,mud,woods,mud bogs etc.) Very quite on the Pavement, and better all around traction. AND I CAN"T POP A HOLE IN THE TIRE>...... Sidewalls are bullet proof at 12 psi for being on the rocks in the woods for surveying. You cannot beat the price. I am now a Destination M/T fan. BFG better step it up:)

Great tires for cattle producers or any other agricultural application where lots of mud and loose soil is present. Great tire for traction and great for ressitance to dammage from trees brush and other commom items which may be encountered while pature cruising. Tire performs well with the Ford split front axle design which has in the past proven to out of line and out of balsnce for other radial mud/snow grip tyoe tires.

Got a set of L285/75/R16 on my Ford F150 Crew Cab Short Bed 4X4. Great looking aggressive tire. Has lived up to all expectations except noisier than I like. Seems like we're always pulling my son's friends' trucks out of places they get stuck. Had some concern about durability d/t prior negative Firestone publicity. Have lost one tire already d/t sidewall blowout. Would rate this tire higher if Firestone had solved this problem. I'm not sure they have. Haven't been in snow yet. Only 10,000 miles on these and live in Texas.

So far they are really great. Had them siped, and they grip very good on snow and ice. Night and day difference in the mud. They go where my old all terrains could never have gone. They drive fine on the road too. I can't belive how many people have told me how good they look on the truck. I never had that happen with the AT's

I used to sell these tires for Firestone, before putting a set on my own truck and throwing away a set of "the other guy's" tires that left me struggling to get out of a dry grass ditch on a warm summer day. Now as for the Firestone M/Ts? Quite simply if you need a tire no larger than 33 inches, this is the best tire for all around traction on any surface you can fine bar none. As for the 3-ply sidewall, if you put a hole in rubber that's more than a 1/2 an inch thick you were probably using a gun of large caliber. Myself I've run tires in the past on various rigs, all the way up to 40 inch Denmans and never have I been as excited about a full-blown mud tire as I am about the Firestone M/Ts. On wet surfaces these tires will stop on a dime and give you 9 cents change. No more panic stops in the winter time on city streets, frantically slamming in the transfer case and throwing the transmission selector into reverse while applying full throttle to get an overladen metallic beast to stop short of an accident. With the Firestone M/Ts you can rest easy next time your foot hits the brake petal in the rain or snow or slush. You will stop when you want and where you want. As for how they wear, I was a little disappointed to see mine are beginning to grow a little thinner, especially since I keep them inflated to the maximum pressure listed (for better mileage) and rotate them every 4000 miles. That is disappointed until I pulled my sales slip from the glove box and realized though I've not even had them 12 months yet, I have still managed to put close to 35,000 miles on them. At this rate I've got another 35,000 in them easily. They could go further but myself I start to get nervous anytime my tires get below the 50% treadlife mark.
If you've ever owned a mud tire before, and then buy these, you'll never want another.
