    Or......

    The new

    Firestone Destination M/T 2

    They both look awesome and are supposed to have exceptional performance.

    The general grabber x3 is running $260.99 a tire for a 285/70/17 from simple tire.

    The destination m/t 2 is running $200.99 a tire for a 285/70/17 from simple tire.

    Any ideas, thoughts, or comments would be appreciated!!!!!!

    Go with the firestone. I had the general red letter grabbers and they only got about half the life of my destination mt

    Yes but I just bought a set of the MT one I guess that's what we will call it. Already got 15k miles on them and they still look great. It will be a while before I'm in the tire market again. My first set of the firestones I got 49k out of with some life still in them. The generals lasted about 30k before they only had about 2/32 left. I just put these on. Love them and they are great off-road. They clean really well and handled the Colorado snow with ease. The generals were good off-road and really good in the sand but they had piss poor wet weather traction.
