Consider this tire

I have a 2018 Chevy 2500 HD 4WD PU with the Duramax engine. Use this vehicle to pull our 5th wheel trailer (about 13,000 pounds) and our boat (about 1,500 pounds). Use the truck for on-road and off-road travel. 40,000 miles on tires, of that 12,500 were pulling our 5th wheel. Rotate about every 5,000 miles, have had the tires rebalanced twice and the front end realigned once since bought the tires. At 40,000 I am replacing them, 3/32 of tread on two tires and 5/32 on other two, likely due to the more worn tires being on rear when pulling trailer more often. Live in a mountain valley at high elevation so 3-Peak rating was important at initial purchase. Tires have worn evenly. While not as quite as a highway tire, for an "aggressive" all terrain tire they are quiet and provide a comfortable ride. Noise has increased some as tires have become more worn. Traction in all situations I have been in, (dry, wet, snow, ice, mud, gravel/rock) has been everything I expected. While I wish we had gotten closer to the 50K warranty tread life, I am satisfied enough with the tread life we got given how we use this vehicle that I am buying another set. Safe travels and please remember to be kind.

Destination XT

Tires look great, but are expensive. 285/60/20 XT are very durable but quite noisy on the road. Also from Street Tires to A/T's, when on the highway you can feel a lot of the Rumble. If you don't need AT's, this brand with street threads are probably the smoothest most durable choice

Good highway tire. TERRIBLE off road tire.

Ad states "Kick up some dirt with the Firestone Destination X/T on- and off -road tires...you can depend on these tires to take you anywhere because tough terrains require an even tougher tire." Do let that fool you. The first time I took these tires off road, I had some minor chunking. The people I was with (all experienced off roaders) noted how my new tires were chunking in the Arizona sand. The next time I took them off road, they chunked a little more. This last trip, I was the only one to suffer any tire damage out of the three of us and was the only one running Firestone's. I had a front sidewall chunk that was almost to the plies and a pinhole in the sidewall that required a plug. Yes, you shouldn't plug a sidewall, but I had no choice as my rear tire also had a pinhole in the tread and I only had one spare with me. This was the first day of a seven-day trip. I ended up being towed up a couple of obstacles because the other people were afraid of me blowing another tire. We were saving my spare for the road trip home. Granted I am running LT275/55/20 E tires at full air pressure due to the small sidewall, but I expected more from these tires. Very disappointed in a premium tire that I will have to replace at least two of them with less than 5,000 miles on them. I'm thinking of just switching brands and replacing all five tires. On road, they were great. A little sidewall flex in winding mountains but nothing bad. Quiet. Good grip. We've had record lack of rain in the 6 months that I've had the tires, so I don't really have much of an opinion on wet handling. The one time it did rain, they handled it fine. I really thought I made a good choice as Firestone is a premium tire manufacture and these weren't cheap. Too bad that I'll probably dump them as only two of the five tires I could even hope to get a couple of bucks for.

Best A/T Tire ever

This will be my 4th set of 265/70r17 between my two 3/4 ton pickups and I plan to go bigger to see if they will impress me even more. They are amazing in deep snow mud sand and rock. And they are great on bad ice as long I kept it 55. I highly recommend these tires I put them to work every day and thru play seeing if I can get it stuck down unplowed roads. I hope they make these tires forever because I believe and trust these tires more than an other and will continue to buy them.

replacement tires for an old 80 series

I researched tires for my 97 for about 4 months and am very happy with my choice. The road manners have been great with hardly any droning at speed. After 8k+ mileage they are not showing any real wear at all.

Great tire

Purchased these tires to replace some old and worn tires. The traction that I get more is amazing. Looking forward to how they will handle the snow. Plus they look amazing on my truck.

Destination XT

Best tire I have ever owned! Improved fuel mileage, great tire wear, quiet for a LT tire, and durable! Over 45,000 miles and tread life is still between 8 - 9. Definitely buy again!

Deestination A/T X

They are a good looking tire as well as good performance. They do grip the road in corners and so far have been great in snow. Not all good tires work good on every vehicle, these seem to be a decent combination

Destination X/T

To write a review on the day of purchase is not a very good review. This is why some of my ratings are not 5 star. I have 20KMs on my new tires. My first trip on my new tires will be into the mountains, that will be a true test for me.
