Customer reviews for Firestone Destination X/T - LT33X12.50R15/C 108R Tire forBest 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.
On my 3rd set
I've always been a Toyo person. But when the XT first came out. I decided to try them. I really enjoy the awesome winter driving capabilities and how quiet they are through the entire life of the tread. Even with heavy oilfield use. The only time I've had a flat is from a nail. Great durability when you are drive the gravel roads doing Mach Jesus with a truck full of heavy equipment. I'm definitely going to put them on my two personal trucks when it comes time.
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.

X/T FOR THE WIN
As an employee I did some research before purchase and I am very surprised by the result I found online these tires are superior to a lot of competitors in different factors a tire has to face head on as an A/T. These tires are magnificent, smooth, quite, and take on any terrain that's in the way!
Best tire todate
this if my second set of the XT tires, I am very happy with the traction I get off road and in the deep snow of the Midwest winters. I get a fairly quiet ride on drive payment and great traction on dry and wet roads alike. Tire has just enough flex to hold traction like the tires are glued to the road in dry weather but stiff enough to have long wear life. If these tires do not outlast the truck I will be buying another set. I put several hundred miles on my truck in a year, the last set I had lasted me for over 3 years and the front tires when I changed them still had a great deal of tread left on them to the point that I kept them for spare and replacement purposes. Deep tread gives excellent traction in snow and great water channeling in heavy rain to prevent hydroplaning.
Really great tire
Bought a set of these tires, didnt even look at the price until it was time to pay. I felt they were really expensive. My bill with evrything including road hazard and some air sensor kits was drive out 2394 and some change..thats almost 600 a tire, 65,000 miles later these tires still have decent tread on them.. i'm only replacing them because Im going on a road trip and I hate having tire issues.. i am buying another set and not even thinking twice about the price.. wish they were a little cheaper.. I would recommend these tires to anyone with a truck or suv.. the excellent on wet roads and pretty decent on what little offroading I do.. truck is mostly on the highway..
DESTINATION X/T = Amazing Tire!!!
Purchased Destination X/Ts to replace the original Goodyear Wranglers. The difference in road performance between the two is night and day. Regardless of weather conditions, and in Wisconsin that means rain, sleet, snow, and ice, the XTs perform flawlessly. They really grab the road when Mother Nature decides it's time for weather! They have a touch more road noise than the AT/2s we have on our other vehicle, but they are actually a low noise tire. Lastly, the XTs have somewhat of an aggressive look to them, but not over-the-top. They actually look really cool! So happy with my X/Ts and highly recommend them!!!!
Destination XLT
I want to say how disappointed I was to find out how loud these tires are. I read the reviews and they said they were quiet. They are not quiet! I had BF KO2 tires before and they are quiet. I cheeped out and went for the XLTs what a mistake. I have to live with these for 2 years. You get what you pay for.
terrible tires
After I drove 15k on these tires, they were completely worn out, I didn't even expect that this could happen, yes, sometimes they helped on off-road, yes, they could dig out, but 15k and completely naked, THIS IS SOME KIND OF HORROR, I don't recommend it

So good I bought them again
I was looking to replace the OEM LT tires that I was never really thrilled with. The Destination XT had just been released,based on the attributes description and Firestone's 90 day buy and try I felt confident to buy. I turned out be very pleased that I did. The Destination XT is an all around great performer, off road confidence and really good on road manners. I am particularly impressed with tread life, how quiet and comfortable the ride is. I put 55,000 miles on and still had 6/32" of tread depth! I replace at that point to have maximum Winter performance. I was so impressed with the overall performance and value I replaced them with another set.Of course I follow the sound tire care recommendations of my Firestone Complete Autocare Team inflation,rotation,balance and alignment. I have no doubt that I will purchase a third set when the time comes.
