Customer reviews for Firestone Destination A/T2 - P275/65R18 114T Tire forMy Forever AT Tire Now!!
Ive had these 275/60R20 Firestone Destination A/T2's for a couple weeks now. Have had heavy rain and tonight visiting family and they wanted to do some night off road. Man these things are FANTASTIC. QUIET, smooth, gained a couple mph on the 2hr trip. Great rain performance and much better than my prior 33x12.5 more expensive and aggressive tires from another brand. Tonight these things performed admirably off road with just a little more sink into very soft deep sand and some mud. They are noticeably narrower so I expected this. Even did a couple steep grades to upper trails and had zero slippage. Even stopping to get out on one grade to scout over the crest, it just picked right up and had no issue continuing. I'm impressed and have confidence in longevity because all of the soles are full tread depth unlike the prior tires. I will replace with these again if I have the truck long enough. If you want an AT tire that is SUPER road friendly but still totally capable for some fun off road, no questions I recommend these.
Happily impressed
First time getting the FS Destination AT2s in the P245/60R18 size. I ended up getting a second set for my 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz AWD because I was so impressed. Ive had multiple brands of ATs including Bridgestone, Falken, Toyo, and BFGs, and these Firestones are the first to get their advertised miles out of them. Mileage wise, these are the first AT tires I've owned that made it to 48K miles. I could have made it to the 55K mark but here in Montana you cannot ride on bald tires. Our weather is too unpredictable and inclement weather can hit at any time. I had 3 -4/32nd left on the set. When I first got these tires, I was able to do 75 mph+ in a Montana blizzard at -30F in 6in+ snow in perfect control. At the 3-4/32nd depth, you really take a hit on control/traction in rain and snow, and I was starting to hydroplane at 65-70mph for the first time. Street: great braking and control. Fairly quiet. Not H/T tire quiet, but significantly definately quieter than Falkens or Toyo ATs Resilience: they are pretty tough, the took a lot of hits while cruising to Yellowstone and Glacier National park and kept going. However, I did pick up a screw which resulted in a slow leak on one time. Fuel efficiency: Took maybe 0-1 mpg loss from all season/street tires. Negligible All Terrain capability: They do great in gravel, mud, and forest land. I did not get a chance to try it in sand. Never got stuck once. These tires consistently test well on YouTube and I can only confirm these are the best all around AT tires. If you are considering them, buy them, You can't go wrong. As soon as my 2024 4x4 Chevy Silverado RST OEM Territory ATs go dead, I will be getting a set of these for it as well.
Second set
First set was so impressive I wouldn't even consider anything else. Got more miles than rated for with legal tread still on. I used four wheel drive a whole lot less often with this tire. I work Constrution so I had too many repair plugs for my liking to pull trailers so it was just time to replace. Super Happy!
Love them!
We bought these tires in 2019 right after our new (to us) truck ended up in a ditch on a rainy night because the brand new tires placed on truck by the dealership were just junk. We knew that we didn't want to skimp on tires because with my job we're driving across the country in a wide variety climates. They have always done amazingly well in ice, snow, and insane amounts of rain. Three years later and my truck is still able to make quick stops and doesn't drift even a bit in high water. We've put almost 80k miles on them so we'll be replacing them this month just for safety but the current ones, even with lower tread, are still preforming worlds better then the original tires. We will be buying these exact tires again.
Destination AT/2 = Excellent Tire
After 53k miles, I needed to replace the original Firestone Destination ATs that came on my 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, which were really good tires. I decided to go with the AT/2s, because of their higher all-weather rating. Living in Wisconsin, you really need tires that can perform in dry, rainy and extreme winter conditions. After roughly 2500 miles, and several snow storms and daily temps in the teens through 30s, these tires have performed wonderfully. I feel very secure in my AT/2s; regardless, if its rain, sleet, snow, ice...plus wind...no worries. I couldn't count the times I mentioned to my wife "I am so happy we bought these tires!" Additionally, the road noise on the AT/2s is not bad at all for an all-terrain tire...they actually sound really cool. Lastly, these tires are not an overly aggressive looking tire, but still are very nice and capable looking. The AT/2 is truly an excellent tire.
Love this tire
In all fairness, although my truck was 4x4, this is the only A/T I've run on it. It came new with Goodyear Wrangler RS-As, which were a typical highway all-season tire. I replaced them with Continental ContiCrossContacts, another highway all-season selection. Both sets gave me about 60k miles, but Christmas 2022 weather dictated something more robust. Wow! These Destination A/T2s delivered. Rock solid traction in bumper-height snow drifts & unwavering stability in 25+ mph winds. They were only slightly louder than the Continentals, but no noticeable hum or vibration, and NO drop in MPGs! They also outperformed the previous all-season sets in the rain, delivering good grip on acceleration and cornering. Great tires, fair price, and I wouldn't hesitate to trust my family's well-being to them again.
Replacing Designation A/T Tires
I purchased the Designation A/T2 tires with the hope that they will perform the same as the Designation A/T that I was replacing. These tires had over 57,000 miles and if it wasn't for winter I easily had enough tread for another 10,000 miles or so. They were nice and quiet on the road and pretty good in the snow too. Nice looking too with the outlined white letters.
Great Tire
I have never had such an aggressive tread pattern on my truck and at 225K miles, I have had my share fair of tires on the truck. I have had Destination LE and Bridgestone Dualers, but they were more of highway tires. I have to say that these tires stick to the road on dry and wet pavement. I haven't had snow or ice as of yet, but I'm sure they will do just as good. These are a very nice tire at a decent price. I would purchase again.
Satisfied Customer
I have well over 220,000 miles on my truck now and this is my third set of Firestone Destination AT2 tires. I like them mostly for quiet ride yet have traction for rain ice or snow. Most of my miles are highway miles but I do get off-road every now and then in farm fields and the boat ramp too. I get around 20 mph fully loaded with these tires on vacation trips. I usually get around 60,000 miles on tread wear before I replace and do not run them smooth. All in all I'm very satisfied with their quiet ride and performance for what I do.
Great A.T. tires
With tons of choices I went with these A.T.2's and am very much impressed so far. They have about 5000 miles on them now and have been through the ringer! Great off road capabilities on moderately severe terrain. They proved themselves 5 or 6 times now and I have to say that when Firestone designed this tire, someone knew how to make an all terrain tire!the on road performance is very impressive as well! Quiet comfortable ride and nice handling. A true All terrain tire worth every penny and then some, Thanks Firestone!
