Hey Guys,
I'm about to pull the trigger and order 35's for my jeep. I'm down to two choice, Firestone Destination M/T, or the BF KM2's. any input on which would would be best for daily driver with moderate offroad?

 

i love my km2'a. on road and off

 

i have Firestone Destination M/T with around 5000miles on them. Rides nice on road but its a little noiser than stock rubi tires. Went thru 24inch of snow with no problems. Have gone thru some deep mud holes and drove all over the beach with no problems. I have went up some small rocks (GWNF).I know they are ranked number one right now on a few review sites. i was looking at the KM2 as well but the price i got for the destinations was alot better. i am happy with mine

 

Don't hesitate: KM2 better off-road, and on the road

 

I have been running 35" Destination M/Ts for about a year and half now, and am at about 30% tread left. And I put a lot of miles on them. They last!
I had them siped for winter driving, but otherwise have been very happy with them.

 

I think this ones about a toss up. Both tires are pretty good. I had a set of Firestones, and really liked em. The Firestones are probably cheaper. But you won't be disappointed in the km2's either.

 

yeah.. both compare pretty equally... just wondering which one hold up better on road

 

x2. If you can afford the KM2s they are a better choice.

Most of the Firestone's sizes have an E load rating which is going to provide a stiffer ride. They are also noisier than the KM2s, in spite of having a lower void ratio. The lower void ratio will make them less susceptible to chunking on rocks.

Neither has siping so their performance on icy roads may be about equal.

 

The Firestones use a harder compound, so should last longer ont he street. Although the KM2's will do better in the rocks due to their softer compound.

 

Anyone have any numbers on how many miles they got out of each tire?
