General grabber AT vs Firestone destination AT?
I currently have the Firestone destinations. I have 41,000 miles on them and they're honestly only half way worn. With the penny test, the tread goes up to Lincoln's eye (penny is upside down). I'm sure I could get 60k out of these, but want to try something new.
What kind of life are you guys getting from the general grabber ATs? I rotate my tires every oil change, alignment and balance once and year and rarely tow or haul. Tires are always at 40 psi. |
Look at the BFG Long Trails too.

I'm comparing p255/70/17 by the three brands. |
Are you looking for all terrains or highway tires? The comparable BFG to the AT's is the Rugged Terrain. The Long Trails are strictly a highway tire.

I hear a lot of good reviews with the Nitto Terragrapplers.....just a suggestion

Might just go with a new set of destinations. With the miles I'm getting out of them, I should stick with what's working. |
Terragrapplers are a bit aggressive for a 2wd.

I was mainly curious if the general grabber AT2s would get the same amount of life. |
Well, my truck came with Generals from the factory - I bought it with 55k on it and they had some tread left, but they were absolutely awful in the rain. I replaced them with Long Trails and they still have tread with about 85k on them.
I run highway tires because I have real snow tires (Michelin X-Ice) on steel rims too. I got those because when I go out west in the winter, I have to have them or I have to use chains. |
