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.

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.

Pros:

look great, goes through mud, deep snow like butter, very rugged, ride excellent, no sloppy travel
|
|
Cons:
|
not very good on packed snow or ice, keep it in 4 wheel drive
|
|
I put 4 of these on my 97 Jeep Cherokee. 30.5x9.5x15 on stock rims. They needed some weight to balance but don't travel or vibrate at all. They gave me 2 inches of lift, thus I needed more room under the wheel wells. They throw mud, they're unstoppable. I do get a distinct vibration when crawling on cobblestone or any uneven surface. They stop fairly well, no lock ups in the rain. However, if you hit a large pool of water on pavement, be very careful, you'll have to fight the steering wheel! I suspect its because of their weight, size. On packed snow and ice, not that great, put it in 4wheel drive. They will however go through very deep snow or mud. For the money they are worth every penny

When New I notieced a grabby wander behind the wheel compaired to Bfg A/Ts. Probably due to the Blocky Nobs
|

I have 46,000 miles on these 315 70r 17s On my 04 Dodge Diesel. When I first got them I had many people hit me up when getting gas and ask what are those Tires? The tread is WAY Deeper then Toyos, in fact it almost seems like the tread at 46k is still deeper than New Toyos! No Joke. The grabby feel wore off when the square edge nobbs had a few k on them. I Hunt and have had these in a foot and a half of Snow, mud, rocky roads and I am bought a 11 4Runner Trail that I will be puting these tires on. I actually debated having 2 sets, one for daily use and one set to keep fresh for hunting and off road. I also have been towing a 30ft Toy Hauler for the past 2 years with these tires. Its is probably a 10,000 lb Trailer with heavy toung weight. No Problems with Max 50psi. I Pile on the highway miles daily with these in the rainy ass Seattle/Bellingham area and the perfor very well even at 40k I am telling you. Get em!

I have these tires on my 1992 Toyota pickup, 3 1/2 body lift and these tires get me through everything! They Really grab. 265-75-16 and they is some road noise once you get up to about 45 mph but other then that the tire is one of the best and cheap to. I've went to different places with some friend that have the tsl boggers and was able to keep right behind them the whole way. Great tire for everyday use and the weekend fun trips

Was skeptical after many negative Land Rover feedback. Have 285/75/16 on 2003 Discovery. Tires performed as advertised. Aired down to 10 lbs @ Uwharrie and crawled and clawed my way over everthing I threw at it (sand, mud, rocks). Even without a CDL or lockers the tires carried me thru things that several people (with lockers)had trouble with. Everyone in our group was very impressed and I might have converted a BFG and SS owner.
Last weekend we played on mud trails while it was raining. Lots of mud, running water, slick rocks and I never even felt like I was close to being stuck.
If Firestone comes out with some more sizes I think BFG would be in trouble.
By the way... No thrown lugs
It has been several months and several miles since my last report......Wearing very well a few worn lugs from spinning on sharp rocks but no thrown lugs. Still rating 10 but wishing Firestone would add more 18" - 20" rim sizes and 35 -37+ OD sizes.....
Bought in May of 2009. I have wheeled hard on rocks, mud, etc. Besides slight rips in lugs from rocks I still rate this tire a 10. All tires are wearing even and after 18,000+ miles they are only down 2-3/32's. Airing down is the key in snow and ice but other then that I love these tires. Hane had them aired down to 8psi without beadlock without issue, slip or failure.

I sold tires in Colorado for 5 years. I have owned 3 sets of these now on 3/4 ton XTC GMC trucks. I have them siped before installation at Discount Tire (they only sipe the middle tread not the edges). This makes these Mudders bulletproof! The added cost is worth it come winter/ice time. The tires are quiet for my daily drive as well. Road noise is not irritating at all! I am a musician and I do not turn my tunes up loud. Love to drive with the windows down. Colorado drivers might dump the BFG A/T love fest and get a set of these. Tire wear is good. Mudders have soft compound but these still do well on wear and the siping helps in this category also. I haven't had cupping problems with these and although that is a mechanical issue (Fords;-), some tires are more susceptible to cupping by design. These are not! I recommend these highly but you'll have to save your nickels cause cost is a considerable investment.

I used to be a BFG Tire fanatic. But when I went hunting with a friend who had a set of these firestone M/T's. I fell in love. I have never seen a tire with more grip. I have them on my Jeep now and have been through Moab,UT and the Durango to Silverton Run with no Issues. Firestone tires have had a bad rap for years, but I am impressed. I haven't found a trail I can't get through (I go places that people think are crazy!).

Just installed lockers onto my rig and have to say that I am loving these tires even more. The are pure diggers. You can actually feel them digging and searching for traction. My buddy has KM2's which are nice but until he can go somewhere I can't these will always be the tire on my rig. Since 5/2009 Ithe tires have only worn 3-4/32's. They are wearing great and I can now confirm that they stick on ice after a December trip to Linville Gorge in NC. Was the only one not slippng and I didn't even air down. The FJ with the KM@'s almost skidded off the road and down the mountain. TRY THESE TIRES.... YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.....

After many sets of BFG mudders I was totally disguted when they ruined thier looks. The Firestones have that clean rugged look and are holding up well on both our Tahoe and our Dodge 1500. I will stay with these tires unless they get cute with the looks like BFG did.

I live in Nevada, and put these on my 04 Toyota 4 dood 4x4 v8. I run 265-75-17 they equil 33". It is a daily driver, and do alot of off-roading, and remote camping. They were put on in oct of 08 and are close to being replaced, I will put these on again. They have well over 50,000 miles and still have traction. The only problem is the ifs, they wear on the out side. I am disabled and don't always rotate when i should, but they have worn better than any other street tire i ever had, 50,000+ miles on a mud tire on a dd! I have never got stuck even in 3' thick mud, or in 4'+ snow. We have every type of terrain here and we travel it all. I trust this tire with my faimly's life, me, my wife, and 3 small children 100-250 miles away from anybody when camping, or wheeling. What other tire can you put your faimly's trust in to get you home.... not many. Never had any problems, are they loud, kinda, they have a bounce to them when it is time to rotate, or at low speeds, but they look and performe awsome. They are also at a good price. Other brands of at's wanted $1,400, firestone wanted $800 out the door, been very happy since. By far the best m/t i have ever ran, and I ran alot. The truck came with new Kumho's, they wore out completley at 12,000 miles. Buy these they are a 10, and great on the road probably 75% road and 25% off road, and alot of extreme 4 wheeling and pulling heavy loads, never had to air down. That is my review.

For a mud tire, it is a great tire. Cleans out really good. Not alot of road noise and rides pretty good to. I thought good milage to. Having them a 2004 2500HD 4x4 Silverado n 33's i got 28000 out of them and thats lots of curvy WV 2 lane. Did not like them in the snow. If it was over 8 inches they didn't do bad but little snows, u had better take it easy.

I have had these on my Jeep YJ Wrangler for a couple of years now with approx 25,000 miles. I have been stuck but it was in a hole you could loose a tank in.. I have been on cross country road trips and wheeled all types of terrain without issue. They wear evenly and handle great. I think mine are approx 1/2 worn out maybe a little less. I can see between 50 and 60K out of them and will by them again.. GREAT TIRE...

M/T (max traction)Installed on a '03 Rubicon Jeep Wrangler. I've had Pirellis, Kellys and Uniroyals. NONE of their aggresive trail tires work like these do. Wet roads are always a problem with the short wheelbase Jeep...these tires STICK to the road. Stiff for the Jeep, but aired @ 35psi they ride smooth. At 25k miles they're still round, have minimal wear, and have never let me down off-road @ 12 psi.

I have had 2 sets of these tires now on my jeep, 31x10.5 and 33x12.5 only because I am able to buy them for a good price. If the only offroading that is being done is mud then go ahead and buy them. They bite down and clean out with minimal wheel spin. In my opinion this is the only place the tire does well. They suck in snow, not the best for trails, not ideal for rocks, and very loud on the street. These tires are horrible on ice because of the lack of siping in the tread (none). I really wouldnt reccomend this tire to anyone, I now run iroks. The iroks are just a bit louder on the road, but out perform these tires everywhere else.

The Firestone Destination MT on my 2011 F150 4x4 offroad has been incredible! Smooth riding quite! Has over 47000 miles as of now could easily go to 50000 and for a mud tire only rotated every 10K thats not to shabby. Great traction on wet road even with the ware indicators almost touching the pavement. Just can't find them in the 275/70R18's right now so switching to a Toyo but would buy again. Tried to in Roanoke but are currently back ordered unknown filling date. Buy with confidence!!!

I have 265/75R16's on my daily driver '04 Jeep Rubicon. They are about used up @ 64,000 miles. Just ordered another set from Roadway Tire. I love em'. Fantastic rain tire, with good street manners. Not much louder than an A/T if you rotate them every other oil change (10K miles) and keep air pressure adjusted. I run 28psi front and 26psi rear on my Jeep. I've had them in rain, sand, mud, ice and snow and I don't know of any other tire that can perform any better in this many categories. Not a perfect all terain tire but VERY close.

have these tires on a 2008 Ram with a leveling kit on front. Have run them for over 40,000 miles with no problems. I am getting ready for a second set soon.
