Tires Firestone or Goodyear

I had a 1999 Explorer and had it at the dealer for an oil change. While it was there word came down from Ford: if it\u2019s an Explorer with Firestone tires, switch to Goodyear! So, for about $40 I got an oil change and 5 new tires (including the spare). Best deal I ever got on a car!

I’ve got Goodyear Wrangler Duratrack 265/70R16 on my 2020 TRD PRO. They’re loud, but let me tell you a story: December 24, 2023 (or 2022) from Nashville we were heading up to West side of Chicago on I65. The further north we went, the weather turned into a blizzard. Semi’s, cars and trucks were all over the road spun out on the side of the road. Could see maybe 20 feet ahead. Seeing everyone else either spun out or driving about 10MPH. Around Elizabethtown KY, I put my Taco into 4 wheel drive (one click of the dial counter-clockwise). With those DuraTracs and the 4 wheel drive, I was able to go 35-40MPH easy driving and fully in control. By Lafayette, IN we were about the only vehicle on the road. All others left or were spun out. Scared the hell out of us. It was amazing. Now, I don’t know about the other makes, but I‘ll take the noise when it means the safety in terrible situations. IMVHO

I have the Firestone XTs on my 3rd gen Tundra, with about 16k miles on them. Good traction all around, and have worn well so far. I like the look of them as well. Only nitpick is they can vibrate a bit under braking at slower speeds.

Im liking my firestone destination at2. I ripped a huge chunk out of my falken at4w sidewall and all I could get in the small town I was in at the time was the AT2s. I drive a lot of highway on my road trip so the lighter weight and slightly less blocky tread has resulted in a decent boost to my fuel economy. It also seems to be much quieter than the at4w.

I got about 5k miles on my Firestone X/Ts and love them. Live in northern New England and they crush the snow. Smooth on the highway minimal sound. Very light weight for an E load rating. Highly recommend

I have Firestone indy500s on my GT,700 rwhp. Hard to beat the price

My next set will be Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6. Both tirerack and tyrereview rave about the good blend of traction, comfort, and wet capabilities.

We had Firestone Transforces on my dad\u2019s truck when I was in high school. Slightest hint of mud and they would pack up and slick off in an instant, but man they lasted a long time.

Those are suredrive sold by firestone. Do not even think of taking these on any ice or snow. Firestone sells all season tires that have the capability of going in snow but these are not it. These are entry level tires.good enough for highway and city driving but that\u2019s it.

I am disappointed with the factory Good Year Wranglers it came with. Tread level on my tires are at 3, Ive been rotating every 5-6k miles, they’re literally bald. Unbelievable.
