The Firestone Destination A/T 2 is a solid choice for drivers who need reliable off-road traction without sacrificing too much in on-road comfort. Its 55,000-mile treadwear warranty and treadlife score of 7.9 indicate it should last well under typical use, though it doesn't quite match the category's average treadwear expectations.
In the all-terrain category, off-road traction is paramount, and the Destination A/T 2 delivers here. However, its wet grip score of 4 falls short of the category average of 5.2, which could be a concern for those frequently driving in wet conditions. The absence of a 3PMSF rating also means it's not the best choice for severe winter weather, unlike some competitors like the Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015.
When comparing to its rivals, the Toyo Open Country A/T III offers better dry grip, making it a more versatile option for those who need a balance between on-road and off-road performance. The Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season might offer a quieter ride, but the Firestone's focus is clearly on off-road capability.
If you prioritize wet grip or need a tire that can handle severe winter conditions, consider alternatives like the Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015. Otherwise, the Destination A/T 2 is a competent choice for those who value off-road traction and treadlife in an all-terrain package.
