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.

great traction, very aggressive
|
|
Cons:

tire seems to wear fast
|

these tires are exceptional despite the fact that they don't last quite as long as people have claimed to have made them last. Only about 15k miles on them, and they are about half tread, and I'm a pretty economical driver. However, despite that these tires are amazing. The handle anything and everything, and my tires have seen it all. Especially snow, these tires are awesome in snow and ice. Havent seen anything like it. Well worth the money

33 x 12.50 on my 2003 TJ with an 15 x 8" wheel. So far so good. I was surprised how quiet they were on the highway. I can hear the radio again! Not bad on snow without lockers, I'm sure a narrow tire would do better. My first choice was a BFG KM2 but for about 30 bucks less per tire I had to give the firestones a try.

just put these on my toyota- took them straight out to the sticky black, nasty tar mud we have in the artichoke fields around here. they were really amazing! i've had a lot of tires over the years- and these cleaned out and gripped as well as anything. i'm really impressed so far. sure, they're not boggers or thornbirds but they are farrrr more streetable. noise on the highway? minimal for a mud tire. i've had mudders with simular tread that HOWLED down the highway. these really are not bad at all. the beadguard is really cool- that should keep the sticks and debris from gettin wedged in the wheel. i'll do some more "testing" with em(sand,rocky stuff) and post again. did i mention that they look really good too?

I've had these in 31-10.50 on a jeep TJ for 1 year, 12000 miles(2000 of that was off-road). They replaced a set of MT CLAWS that I loved. Was gonna get claws again, but got a great deal on these.
On the road, these tires are excellent for what they are. Low noise for a mudder, but not quiet. No hydroplaning and handle great w/no roadwalk. They balance well,are wearing great and still look like new (with proper rotation schedule).
On snow, they are great. I can go anywhere I need to go in the TN mountains with no worries.
On ice, they really surprised me. Right now the roads are a SOLID SHEET OF 3" OF ICE, and I just drove 35 miles round trip in 2wd on curvy,hilly roads. I can put jeep in 4hi and really take the fun out of the bad roads. Best road mudder I've ever owned.(during snow,ice,I air down to 18psi)
Off road,they are just OK, compared to the CLAW,they are junk.(Claws are the best I've ever seen in a lifetime of wheeling). I hunt ALOT in rough remote muddy rocky steep mts, and these tires will get the job done, but not like the claws do. They don't clean like they should untill you make them spin.Which I HATE SPINNING and tearing up roads and soggy fields. I don't have the controll that I was used to with the claws in nasty situations. I haven't been stuck because of these tires, but...I HAVE had to turn around and go out a different route cause these tires weren't able to get it done.(where the claws could) I HAVE made a mess of a few trails that I used to traverse with ease and would never slip a wheel.(which is my goal I don't like doing damage to a hunting property that a landowner has so graciously allowed me to be on.) I've never done any damage to these tires as mentioned in other reviews, but I have a light foot on the trail.
Also,off road, these are a lot "stiffer" sidewalled than the MT's, so they BEAT THE LIVIN CRAP OUTTA ME. Even when aired down they are not as forgiving as I'd like on the short jeep.(not an issue on a truck)
Overall, I like these tires on the road better than any other MT I've ever owned or seen.But they are not the "best" off road...however for a daily driver rig,where serious wheeling isn't the main focus they are perfect.The shortcomings they have in the woods are offset by how great they are on the Hwy. Sorry so long and specific, but hope this helps someone in spending their hard earned money.
I'm gonna buy another set of wheels and claws for deer season, and run these the rest of the year.

i have 265/75r16 on a 1993 chevy 1500. in the mud and snow they pull right through. on the rocks of the rubicon work great no lugs ripped off. i run 28psi around town 32 when pulling the boat 12 to 15 psi off road. these tires see the off road 2 to 3 times a week i rotate every 3000 miles there is 25000 miles on them and there is still 10/32 of tread on them. buy these tires if you hate being stuck they are the best

Great on-road wear, great all around traction
|
|
Cons:

Only up to 33" diameter

A year into these and you can still see the little casting nubs on the side of the main tread blocks. I fully expect to get 50k+ miles out of these tires on my 99 Grand Cherokee with a 6.5" long arm lift and v8 power. I haven't got a single complaint. I bought with a 30% off coupon and got 5 tires mounted, balanced, with road hazard warranties out the door for $800 (including sales tax). Not shabby for a 33x12.5 mud tire!

I've been running these tires on my GM3/4 ton for over 2 years with lots of highway driving and loads of backroad exploring, consisting of fresh blast rock logging roads, the occasioanl Trail, mud, wet/dry rock Snow and even some sand. also tow a heavy trail rig and trailer with these and they don't wander or walk on the rims at all, Best tire I've ever owned hands down. My only complaint is they don't come larger than a 33" if they did I'd be buying them again and again.

Dont do well on ice....

Ran this set of 315/70/17 on an H2 for 5000 miles little sign of wear, they do well in deep water you can't even tell you hit it! In 12"of mud they just pull you threw, Now for snow if its deep no problem, if its light like an 1" they slip and slid like crazzy unless you DO SIPING then nothing will stop them......
