Firestone Destination AT tyres

#1

Post by Erin »

Any opinions? Can get a set at a reasonable price.

Use will be 99% tar and good gravel, and occasional off-road use.

Price is a factor, because I'm sponsoring them for cost centre no. 2 - broke-ass student son.

265/70/16s, and I need 5.

They are fine tyres.
If the price is right - buy them.
There are better tyres, but they are costly.

I was quite happy with them. They are quieter than most A/T tyres, and they have good grip in the wet.

I put them on my one Rocky. The Destination A/T Grip ones.

After Klein Pella trip at end of month will know more how they stand hard 4x4'ing

Report back...
No issues on all the trails at Klein Pella. Normal trail pressures were 1 bar....no breaking off of chunks, no sidewall cuts. Still look new

In the dunes I ran at 0.4bar, no issues and no debeads, even with tight turning on the pans

Quiet on tar roads, so very happy with them
