Firestone Destination 275-70-17 Pic`s

I just got back from the Local Firestone Store. Initial impression is very good, they firm up the ride a little bit and feel more secure than the Dunlops. When I get more miles on them I will update my review.

Before Stock Dunlops

After

Not a hugh difference in looks, but it helps.

A few more pics

Lookin good, how do they ride in comparison to the stock tires? Noise, ride stiffness, etc?

 

[Mike G.]

I really did not notice an increase in noise and the ride is better than stock in my opinion. It is a little bit firmer, but there is no concern about the truck riding rough.

I replaced my stock Dunlops at 54k with these tires and i now have 97k total on my vehicle. After going from worn dunlops to these it was like putting in a pair of earplugs. These are great tires I would highly recommend.

Lookin' good Mike!

Mag Gray with Firestone Destination AT's look familiar :wink2:

It doesn't look like there is any difference comparing the 265's to the 275's, but maybe it looks a little bigger in person.

 

[Mike G.]

The difference is very small, I noticed the size increase, but nobody else would see the difference.

I think most of the difference is due to the more aggresive tread pattern.

Are they LT275s?

Subtle but nice........what did those set you back?

I really want more aggressive tires but can't stomach selling my brand new factory ones with 1300 miles as I know I won't get jack for them.

The local Firestone store had price matching, so I found the tires for sale on Tiresonline.com for $159.00 and they honored that price plus mounting and balancing, which was pretty reasonable.

Hey Mike, I was wondering if you have any kind of lift on your runner? If not, have you seen any significant rubbing and did you need to do any trimming?
Thanks, looks good.

I sent you a reply via PM. No lift, all stock and no rubbing. Thanks !!
