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.

These Are Awesome!

I have a 2021 F150 that I put a level kit on. Upsized my Tires to a 285/65R20. Grabbed a set of these Firestone XT's from a local dealer to make my truck look a little more aggressive. They did not disappoint. They are super smooth, literally zero vibration. Has a little road noise which is to be expected with this type tread, but honestly it isn't bad at all. I love these! I'd put these over BFG K02's or General ATX's any day. A little expensive but well worth the quality of the tire.

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.

Great All Conditions Tire!

Having grown up in the tire business, I've been around Firestone along time. This new cross-terrain tire really intrigued me by it's tread design and mileage warranty. I bought LT275/70R18s and they have been a great ride with great performance off-road and on-road. The tires are not noisy as you might think from their design. The tires have a great ride and have great traction off road, in the snow, and great wet traction with great braking. The only problem I have with them is I didn't get the mileage out of them. I'm replacing them just shy of 30K. I rotated about every 5K and have maintained my pressures with towing and not towing. I would buy this tire again!

Great tires so far

The Destination XT tires seem to have a entirely different but satisfying feel as far as traction and ride go. They do great in the rain. I haven't encountered snow or ice yet but I'm sure they will do great. My only wish is that all sizes were available with with white wall lettering. I was alittle disappointed once I realized there were no white letters on the size I purchased.

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!

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!!!!

unsatisfied customer

purchased tires in April and had one of the tires go flat today while driving. upon inspection of tire, could not find any foreign objects or holes, so tried filling tire up with air. immediately i could hear it leaking, flipped it over and could see the large 'tear' or 'crack' between 2 lugs and going down towards the sidewall. when i brought the tire back in to the shop that sold and installed the tires, they tried to tell me that it is a puncture/cut and is road hazard. I do not have road hazard, but there is no way this is a puncture or cut. How do I have this looked at for a 2nd opinion for a manufacture defect? I can attach pictures if that will help. as of now the shop is not willing to cover anything on this almost brand new tire.

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.

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.
