Destination M / T2
Since 2017, Firestone has launched the Destination M / T2 range of tires. Tires are still produced and to this day remain in demand among buyers in different countries of the world. Yes, if you didn't know, Firestone products are now available not only in the US and Canada but also in other countries around the world.
But back to the Destination M / T2 lineup. These tires are a modernized and improved continuation of the Destination M / T line, which has been in production since 2002. In the M / T2 tires, several disadvantages that were inherent in the M / T model have been eliminated. However, all the advantages of M / T tires are retained in the new and improved model.
Destination M / T2 are designed for light trucks, four-wheel-drive SUVs, and other equipment that moves not so much on asphalt, but off-road. The tires in the MT2 range are designed to provide maximum traction in all weather conditions. If you still don't know what excellent off-road handling is, then it's time to try these tires!
About the manufacturer
Someone will say that it is possible not to talk about the manufacturer but believe me, this is important. Firestone is America's oldest pneumatic tire manufacturer. The manufacturer has hundreds of patented technologies that make car tires more durable and safer, both on and off the road. In 1988, Firestone became part of the Japanese concern Bridgestone. Now all modern products sold under the Firestone brand are not only technologically advanced but also of very high quality.
About tires
As mentioned, Destination M / T2 tires have been designed specifically for SUVs and light trucks. Therefore, an aggressive tread is used in the construction of the tires, which bites into the ground and drags the car where ordinary tires skid.
But high flotation is not the only feature of these tires. According to the results of numerous texts and according to user reviews, these tires are indestructible, as they last many times longer than conventional tires. However, the advantages of these tires are not limited to reliability and aggressive tread.
All-season tires and it is. Excellent handling was achieved because during the development phase the tires were tested in real conditions in different climatic zones throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Before launching the Destination M / T2 into production, they drove thousands of miles across hot Nevada and the slush and snow of Alaska. And only when they were convinced that the tires meet the expectations of demanding buyers, they were launched into production.
Manufacturer's warranty
Destination M / T2 tires are covered by a mileage and time warranty. Having bought these tires, you can return them to the seller if you find a manufacturing defect or defect within 90 days. The Firestone company gives a time guarantee for all of its modern tires, and this once again proves that these tires are reliable and durable.
Reasons to buy
So why do we recommend these tires for your purchase? There are many reasons, we will list the main ones.
- Strength, reliability, and, as a result, durability. The tires are manufactured with a colossal margin of safety. It is clear that the resource is largely determined by the weight of the car, but all the same, Destination M / T2 will travel more than conventional tires. For greater strength and reliability, a special rubber compound was used with the addition of silica fillers. As a result, the tire tread is both elastic, durable, and abrasion-resistant. Also, the tires use a reinforced carcass, which is reinforced with a large number of diagonally located belts. The buyers of these tires never complained about hernias, which also speaks of the durability of the rubber compound.
- Excellent handling. Destination M / T2 tires feature several technologies to ensure confidence, predictable and safe handling. For example, the location of the vice-rectors blocks contributes to better directional stability of the car both on straight sections and when cornering. Again, the presence of a tread on the sidewalls increases the vehicle's flotation on the low-density ground. The sidewalls dig into the ground and prevent lateral wheel slip on wet terrain.
- The tread will be clean even when driving on unpaved surfaces. All grooves between the tread blocks are wide. As a result, stones and soil do not linger in the tread and do not interfere with adhesion to the road surface. The self-cleaning feature sets Firestone's off-road tires apart from other tire manufacturers. Moreover, the self-cleaning function used in the Destination M / T2 ensures a long service life of the tire, since stones in the tread do not get stuck and do not perforate the rubber.
- Low noise level. On the highway, these tires are practically silent, at least in comparison with other off-road tires with aggressive protectors. It is clear that for SUVs and trucks, this is not the most important advantage, however, quiet tires provide comfort in the cab, which is especially important when traveling long distances.
- Design. When choosing tires, few people pay attention to their design. Meanwhile, Firestone made the Destination M / T2 to match these tires with your car's design. Destination M / T2 tires are available with all-black sidewalls. These tires are a versatile solution for modern and classic SUVs. Along with the all-black tires, the Destination M / T2 can be purchased with black sidewalls adorned with white lettering. These tires will be a great solution for classic SUVs and pickups.
- The optimal combination of cost and performance. Destination M / T2 tires are some of the best handling and reliability in their price segment. By purchasing these tires, you save money without compromising the quality of your purchase.
About disadvantages
The Destination M / T2 has many advantages, but there should be disadvantages. Perhaps there are drawbacks, but they are noticeable only in comparison with tires presented in the premium price segment. For example, tires that are one and a half times more expensive behave a little more confidently in deep mud. But then it's up to you to choose what you want - practical all-season tires or more expensive tires.
Real resource
When you buy a Destination M / T2, you can be sure these tires will travel at least 40,000 miles. Although there are cases when such tires, during hard operation, traveled more than 50 thousand miles.
Dimensions and compatibility
Destination M / T2 tires are available in a wide range of sizes. For example, internal diameters of 15 ", 16", 17 ", 18" and 20 "are available.
Of course, this is not a complete list of vehicles that can be fitted with Destination M / T2 tires. Just ask your nearest dealer what tires are available and match them to your car's rim sizes.
