Thoughts on Firestone TRANSFORCE AT tires

I've never been a fan of Firestone tires at all. My new Ram came with them and I'm at 10K miles. Overall, I'm happy with them. They seem to be wearing well and the performance has been good. Of course, it's summer and my truck is new to me so I'm still learning the way it handles and the conditions are pretty much ideal. I'll likely have a more concrete opinion in another 6 months.

Good tires... We're running them on a couple of trucks.

My neighbor lady is a trucker. She has a sweet looking '02 3500 DRW with a haulers bed. She has used the Transforce AT on the truck and the HT on all her GN trailers for years.

I have them, only thing I don't like is that it seems like they track on grooved pavement, especially when brand new. Doesn't seem to track as much after having 16k miles on them.

They do ok in the snow as well, but not as well as more aggresive all-terrain type tires. They are quiet, not much in the way of making noise. For the price, they're a very good tire.

I bought 8 of them last Sept. for <$1600.00. Have over 30k on the truck ones now and am a happy camper. Also got about 10k on the ones on 5er. So far so good.

I put them on our 1 ton dumps at work. Great load carrying qualities.

Have the 235-80-17s on our type 6 brush engine for the last 3 fire seasons. Those tires have been through everything and are doing very well.

I had them on my previous truck and my only problem was traction on wet pavement. Seemed like they lost traction a lot and would spin.

I have them on my truck (AT)and my trailer (HT) and would recommend them to anyone.
