Firestone Destination MT's!
Here's my semi review! When I have a more km's on them ill go a little more indepth with the review! First off ill start with the attractive look of these tires, made my runner look way more aggresive then with bfg's. I ran both bf all terrian on this and a set of mt's. They both sucked imo. They both made me hydroplane horriably! To the point I wouldn't take my daughter any where when it was raining. I found them to "wonder" mostly cause of a bad tie rod end. Breaking in wetter conditions were horriable. Finally the other morning I blew a side wall out of one the all terrians. So I loaded the new tires headed to the shop. For 1025 I had got 4 destination mt's mounted with new valve stems, blanced. I've had them on for 4 days now and WOW what a difference. It turns better, breaks better dry and wet( yesterday had a bad thunderstorm so I desided to set the pavement ability when wet and a load of water on the road). Rather then hydroplaning I noticed that the puddles weren't anything I stuck to the pavement. After the rain had stopped I decided to test them in good Nova Scotia swap mud. Check the video on my channle on youtube. Mrpumba1239 is my username. That was with at's, ill get another in same hole with these tires. Wow these tear huge chucks of mud and throw it. Buddy I went wheeling with yesterday has a lifted jeep and well he wouldn't drive behind me cause of the mud I was throwing. Any how when I have more use in them ill do another review or amp this one up some.

Mine are the mt and well I love them, grinder they are 31x10.50 on 8 inch chev rims. Some of the holes I have been in bigger trucks with 35 and bigger couldn't get through. I love these tires best tire imo, they are a little loud on the tarmack but I don't care what anyone says any mt is loud when compared to a a/t. I'm in the process of buying a new jeep and the dealer is gonna put a set on for me plus let me have the factory mt for a winter tire. So now I have close to 1000 clicks on them with inspection they are hardly showing where, I had read other reviews when people were running them on big diesel trucks and heavy duty trucks and blowing sidewalls out ect, well this tire comes in a different rating for towing mine is a c I do believe and I don't need any more then that. I throw a conoe on from time to time but never anything super heavy. So no change on earlier statement. Its just simple these tires are amazing and Firestone/Bridgestone did an amazing job with these, and got a package in the mail from firestone with a free hat and decals. So I'm gonna stick with them!

Mike, I'm running them on everything, old woods roads, rocky roads, mud sticky nova scotia swap mud, sand(which unless in 4x4 just dig holes) but really just about everything except snow cause we haven't had any yet.
