I replace my Firestone Destination XT’s that I loved. After all the reviews I figure these would be even better. Unfortunately, they are not even in the same ballpark. The tires break contact when starting from a stop on wet roads and in the mud the cake up with mud and provide no traction. Very disappointing and can wait to get my mileage out of them and get them replaced.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Ford F250 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
I work in the oil field, with lots of stop and go on gravel. I drive lots of mud, deep deep snow, gravel and a light mix of highways in Canada.
I was very pleased with the winter performance, these tires grip very well in snow and mud. They do lack on ice grip but this is a sacrifice I'm willing to make.
The whisper grooves keep the tire noise tamed but not entirely muted. They do have a slight constant noise but this does not bother me.
I found the tires to be exceptionally durable, not chipping away and destroying the tires as I drove them on lots of gravel. This is a common problem we face in the oilfield.
I would recommend these tires if your interests align with mine in this order:
1: Mud and Snow performance - EXCELLENT!
2: Tread life - EXCELLENT! They hold up to chipping from stones very well.
3: Cost - Affordable, $1850 CAD installed and balanced when I got them.
4: Ice - Drive accordingly to the road conditions - This is my least important factor. These tires are not disappointing on ice but they definitely lack here.
These tires inspired confidence in snow and mud, they fall short on ice as expected but this is not a huge concern to me. The seemed to pack snow into the tread that held the snow on snow traction i require at work.
Since my work pays for tires this allows me to try a new tire any time i need new shoes. And these were the best tread life i have ever had. The tires had over 70000km of abuse on them under my F250. I usually only get 40000-55000km per set. Putting these well above the pack
Other tires ive used include:
Mickey tompson baja atz - lasted 40000km before having dangerous delamination on 2 tires. Loved these tires up to that point.
Toyo at2 extremes - ran 2 sets. Both averaged around 50000km. Durable casing. Great tires.
Toyo at3 - these tires are much softer then at2 and didnt last as long. Roughly 40000km. Overall a good tire, just expensive.
Hankook dynapro at2 -lasted 60000km. I didnt enjoy these tires, they are terrible in snow and mud. Good on icy highways. For my use case i wouldnt get them again.
I don't know what the issue is or was but I went back to the noisy BFG's.
‘99 F-250, reg cab, long bed, v10 with 260,000 miles. No worn ball joints or ball studs in the front end when tested.
