I would buy again.

Rotated every 5k miles
37 Psi average
Had these tires for about 43k miles at this point. Healthy mix of highway and dirt road travel. I have been very impressed with these tires. They still have at least 10-15k left in them. I've never had an issue with sliding in wet or snow conditions. That being said I found that it took till around 10k miles to where it would stop spinning tires when stopped on road paint with even light throttle. Not a huge deal though.
After 43k only issues I've noticed were their tendency to squeal when turning even at low speeds. Road noice is minimal compared to previous tires I've had such as Coopers.
Overall, I would buy these again. They are a life saver when it comes to anything off-road and they ride well on the highway considering they're mid tires.

The tire that does it all
I've had a set of these on my 1997 Ram 2500 Cummins for almost a year, and they have blown me away with their all-around capability. I've run them in mud, sand, snow, and rocks, and the closest I've come to getting stuck was pulling a trailer back to the road from the shore at Sand Hollow (where Matt's Offroad Recovery does a huge chunk of their rescues of nut jobs pulling trailers through the sand with heavy diesel pickups). I've towed fairly heavy loads for a couple thousand miles on the highway and they have done that extremely well for an M/T tire. I've gone hundreds more miles empty on the highway with no complaints. There is a little tire noise, but it's barely audible under the Cummins growl. With some careful driving, they got me through snow and ice on my elk hunt last year with no drama. There hasn't been any noticeable tread wear, and they are wearing evenly so far. I'm definitely going to continue buying these tires as needed unless something goes seriously bad as they wear more.

I've put mostly highway miles on them since buying them, with a bit of offroad travel and I've been nothing short of impressed. They are very civil on the highway for an MT, with much less noise than I anticipated, barely audible under a 12-valve Cummins at 75-80 mph. They're reasonably stable at highway speeds whether empty or towing, although I have yet to put them through any winter driving.
As far as offroad performance goes, I haven't asked too much of them yet, but they've easily handled the rocks, gravel, deep sand, and few inches of mud and slush I've encountered so far this year with no slippage or loss of traction to speak of. All in all I'm very satisfied and I look forward to pushing them harder.

Great tires, haul a lot of heavy loads, cattle, tractors and equipment. Have put about 3,000 miles in last month on them and ride really good. 1/2 highway miles 1/2 off road. Great all around mud tire
I got 45,000 miles out of them on a 19 f250 hauling lots of weight on highway, great in mud and sand.

You must keep the tires rotated every 5,000 miles as with any mt & they'll wear fantastic! Best truck tire I've ever ran to date . And that's coming from an automotive shop owner

Extremely loud tire. Horrible tread life. Appox. 10K miles and over 55% of tread is gone on my Chevrolet 2500 HD. Very unhappy with these tires.

06 Ford f350 SD long bed, 6 inch lift.... So far so good!!! Haven't put a ton of miles on yet. Highway primarily. No winter in sunny CA so hard to know about wet, winter conditions at this point. Noise isn't really an issue over the motor, turbo, and Exhaust. Quiet inside too. I got almost 45k out of my toyo mts so as long as I'm in the neighborhood of that. I don't see the need to pay for branding. Nothing bad to say about toyo, except I'm not rich and don't need to pay extra for rubber. May be a firestone guy, but time will tell......

Outlined White Letter (OWL) or Black sidewall, depending on the tire's size
Backed by Firestone's 90 day Buy and Try Guarantee on tires sold in sets of 4 or more (certain restrictions and limitations apply)
Mud and stone ejectors clear debris to limit spinning in mud, snow, wet, and other off-road terrains
Made for aggressive off-roading and providing drivers great confidence to tackle deep mud, sand, gravel, rocks, dirt, and even snow, the Firestone Destination M/T2 is a great solution for off-road enthusiasts who want to muscle their Jeeps, SUVs, and light trucks with a highly capable mud-terrain tire.

Off-roaders and adventurers can consider the Destination M/T2 for vehicles like Toyota Tacoma, Ford F-250, Dodge RAM 2500, Jeep Wrangler, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Nissan Titan, and GMC Sierra 1500.
