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.

I own quite a few 4-wheel drive vehicles and even one 2-wheel drive pickup and I run Destination M/T's on them all! A 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee (lifted 4 1/2 inches,31x10.50,s). I use it for a daily driver running about 65 miles a day and light to medium offroading on the weekends and some trailer towing. I got 44,000 miles on the first set and so far 7500 on my second (current) set. Best mud tire i,ve ever owned! Great in deep snow too! Highly recommend these tires to anyone who needs EXCELLENT,RELIABLE,TRACTION. A 93 DODGE W150 1/2 ton pickup and run 31x10.50x15,s and got 40,000 on those also. An 87 dodge W250 with a 440 big block/4-speed(lots a torque!!!) with 285/75/16's. Run this truck mostly in deep mud/offroad trails hauling firewood in the mountains. Excellent traction loaded or unloaded. And lastly my 2-wheel drive 72 3/4 dodge with 245/75/16's. Mostly onroad driving year round. Excellent road manners rain or shine. But these tires really shine during my Pennsylvania winters on plowed or unplowed roads! Would have been stuck many of times with only 2-wheel drive if not for using these tires. Can't say enough about these tires! Go buy a set!

I put a set of these firestones on my jeep tj. Had trexus mts that were hard to keep balanced. I love these tires on the jeep, much smoother ride. Just the other day I was going thru several water / mud holes, I thought I was going to get stuck in the last hole, The jeep stoped moving, water was coming in over the door sills,had my foot to the floor,roosters of water and mud fling over the the roof and these tires pulled me out,Awsome tire !!! All this while I was teaching my 14 year old how to drive a stick. He really likes these tires to because he didnt have to wade thru hip deep water to hook up the winch!! HA I think he is a firestone lover for sure. ( By the way I drive a 4 banger jeep with open diffs.)

Pros:

Great mud traction
|
|
Cons:
|
Could be better on wet and icy roads
|
|
They ride pretty good. Some vibration at low speeds but minimal noise even at 100km+. They aren't siped so wet traction isn't great. They do well in most off road situations. Great overall tire.

Great tires for the average driver on the highway and off road. Also great for towing or pulling boats up and out of bad boat launches. Some noise on highway but didn't notice with my flow master exhaust system. Ran the tires for about 35000 miles on a 2004 GMC 4x4 with no trouble at all.

wearing great
|
|
Cons:

Slight Side Slip in winter conditions if fully aired
|
|
OK. It has been several months and I still have nothing to complain about. I have 20k on the tires and after the first winter of sliding we finally realized that airing down was the only answer. They have been 80/20 on/off road and show slight tears and chips missing from the outer lugs due to rocks but I am still loving this tire.

I'm currently running a set of Firestone Destination M/T (285/65/18 E-rated) on a 2007 Tundra crewmax 4x4 and don't think I could be happier with these tires. I purchased these tires in Texas from Firestone about 18 months ago. The main reason I chose these tires was due to the price, buy 3 get 1 free got me in the door. I will acknowledge that they do hummm at hwy speeds since they are a M/T tire. The noise these tires generate don't bother me and it maybe more pronounced on another vehicle since I feel my truck is very well insulated from road/wind noise (read almost Lexus quite with standard tires).
But this is the breakdown of my experience with these tires so far:
1. I am currently at 51,800 miles, at least 2,000 miles on gravel roads, on these tires and have about 2,000-3,000 miles of safe tread depth left.
2. I drive with a heavy foot, enjoy 381 hp and 401 tq, and curvy mountain roads.
3. I have towed 4000 lbs at hwy speeds about 15,000 miles with these tires.
4. I have driven with a 2000 lb camper in the bed about 12,500 miles paved and 1,000 miles gravel.
4. Tires have seen temps ranging from -45F - 110+ with no issues. I currently live in Fairbanks, AK and the tires did well last winter in the sub-zero climate. I had no issues with flat spots due to the cold weather or the rubber sticking to the ice after being parked outside after a long drive.
5. No chunking or chipping of the rubber.
6. No slices or gouges in the 3-ply side walls or punctures in the main tread area.
7. Tires have performed great in all terrains (dry, wet, mud, sand, and gravel) except rock climbing. Did I mention that I drive a big fat pig of a truck that would not do well rock climbing no matter what the tires were.
8. Tires balanced well and have been rotated only 4 times.
9. Acceptable snow/ice performance for my truck. My truck does have traction control, vehicle skid control, and ABS that will adjust to each wheel individually. So you may have a different experience on these road conditions. Siping the tires would give these tires great traction in light snow.
10. I would recommend these tires to others due to my experience with them.
Overall I am very happy to have gotten the mileage out of these tires even with all the towing and gravel roads. I will be replacing them with the exact same tires this fall. I only wish I could replace them for them for the price I paid for them in Texas, about 33% less than my quotes here in Alaska.

I bought a set of Destination M/T tires over a year ago fro my 2006 4wd Tacoma long bed. The tire make my truck look much better. I drive in all conditions, and the tire really hold thier traction. The traction is great when driving in heavy rain, and with deep treads I d ont have to worry about hydroplaning. The humming noise on the road is like a badge of honor. You put agressive tires on your truck you will get the humming noise. People I know really like my tires on my truck. Once I wear my current set out I will buy another set.

Hard to find an alignment shop that has the right equipment.

I would have never thought I would like a Firestone tire but now there are 5 on my 2007 H3 HUMMER. These tires are without a doubt the best M/T tires I have ever owned. Firestone engineers obviously did their homework and came up with a solid winner! I'm over 50 so I've owned a few sets of mud tires in my time but these just are too good to believe. If I had to say a bad thing about these tyres it's because of the way they're built to protect the rim of the wheel with an overlap it makes it impossible for older alingment equipment to attach thus causing me to have to look for a different shop. Even Firestone where I bought them can't align the truck because of the tires.
