I would personally stay away from firestone tires.

Well, it sounds like that you have already ruled out the winterforce since they are winter tires! I'd personally say that rather than considering the two you mentioned in your post, try Cooper Discoverer H/T. they are cheaper than the destinations and better & longer lasting! If you wanna do some research, go here: Cooper Tires

That is the only reason I opened this lol. I thought it was going to be about some tire that seemed to be rolling back home after he dumped them off at the junk yard.

OP: I'd suggest some General Grabber AT2's

Too late now, but the Liberator A/Ts are known for dry rotting. The Wrangler Radial isn't a bad tire, but personally I'd prefer the Destination A/T, just because I use my tires like they're name states lol

Meh....the Toyo Open Country A/Ts I had on my Dakota were supposed to be "prorated". Hardly lasted 20k. Would've costed $250 per tire after the price adjustment. Shoulda gone with the Wrangler Authority A/Ts! Haha. Beastly *** tire, and decently priced too!
