The Transforce AT is Firestone's Commercial All-Terrain light truck tire developed for the drivers of multipurpose full-sized pickups, vans, sport utility and commercial vehicles looking for heavy-duty light truck tires that can combine traction on the highway, as well as at work jobsites and recreation areas. The Transforce AT is designed to provide on- and off-road traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, including snow.
Transforce AT radials feature a Long Link Carbon tread compound molded into a symmetric tread design that uses notched shoulders, independent intermediate tread blocks and multiple sipes to blend dry-road handling with poor weather traction. Wide circumferential grooves provide hydroplaning resistance while lateral grooves and multiple sipes provide the biting edges needed to enhance snow traction.
The tire's structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spiral-wrapped nylon to help maintain the tire's shape and enhance performance at highway speeds while a polyester cord body improves ride quality.

Customers think the Firestone Transforce AT delivers solid dry traction (7-10 scores) and reliable off-road performance in rugged conditions, aligning well with its commercial all-terrain purpose. Wet traction receives mixed feedback, with some noting hydroplaning risks and inconsistent grip in heavy rain. Winter performance is a common concern, with low scores (0-5) for snow and ice traction highlighting limited cold-weather capability. Treadwear ratings show significant dissatisfaction, with many reporting premature wear despite the tire's rugged build. On the positive side, ride comfort earns praise for smoothness on uneven terrain, though noise levels vary. Ideal for users prioritizing dry/off-road performance over winter versatility.

...road traction is great in all conditions and the wear has been even across all tires...
Great tires, I've driven in light to heavy snow was able to push and pull vehicles that were stuck, road traction is great in all conditions and the wear has been even across all tires. I've driven from Rhode Island to Florida with no problems. I noticed most of the complaints about these tires come from people who drive Dodge's is it the tire or the truck? I will definitely buy again.

...Very good handling tire - track well and corner very well...
Have about 88,000 miles of mostly highway driving on these ATs and they still have about 4/32 left. Will replace them with another set of TransForce tires in time for winter snows. This is an incredibly quiet tire despite the AT tread design. Very good handling tire - track well and corner very well. Ride on sharp bumps is harsher than softer P-rated tires - although I'm running with 41 pounds of air in the Transforce vs 32 for my vehicle's original equipment P-rated Goodyear tires. Deep snow traction is decent but not as good as some other AT tires having a more aggressive tread design - but many other ATs are way too noisy as a tradeoff. Very puncture resistant - drive regularly on gravel roads up near the Canadian border that do in many other tires on friend's trucks - no flats on the Transforce ATs so far.

...Nice highway response and oher than a little harsher ride the seem to great so far.
Purchased these tires 2 weeks ago before I headed to my hunting cabin. The first night there we got over a foot of snow on top on an existing foot. These tires are the best I have ever had on my Duramax. No problem chugging thru the deepest snow. Nice highway response and oher than a little harsher ride the seem to great so far.

Driven on a diesel F250 4x4 supercab in northern New England (New Hampshire). I travel 45 miles one way to work. Purchased these from my Ford dealer of all places, and was pleased not only with price but all around performance. Getting through the nor'easter snow storms is critical, and these tires work so far. Nice ride quality, even with load range E. With 20,000 miles, they are hardly worn. Will buy these again.

...They are excellent on the road when not towing and are quiet and very smooth...
I tow a 12,500 lb. 36 ft Hitchhiker Fifth-wheel trailer up and down from Boston,Mass to the Florida Keys every winter for the past 7 years with my 2001 Chevy 2500 H D Duramax diesel truck and I have had Excellent luck with these tires. Never a blow out, never a flat, driving about 110,000 miles, and these are the second set of Firestone tires after the new original equipment tires lasted over 60,000 miles and still had a fair amount of thread left, probably 30 % They are excellent on the road when not towing and are quiet and very smooth. The Best tires I have owned in 40 years. Nice job Firestone!!!

...They drive alright on dry roads, but are absolutely dangerous on wet roads and especially in snow- even at slow speeds... The Firestones also hydroplane in any amount of rain- likely because there are no lateral grooves to evacuate water...
Absolutely the worst tire I have ever owned. These came as original equipment on my RAM 2500 truck. I am honestly shocked that RAM would put these tires on one of their vehicles. They drive alright on dry roads, but are absolutely dangerous on wet roads and especially in snow- even at slow speeds. If you look closely at the tire there are no lateral grooves/ blocks in the tread. The tread essentially consists of 4 vertical bands, with nothing lateral other than a small amount of sipes. I have nearly wrecked my truck several times- fortunately at low speeds in even a trace amount of snow. Even in 4wd low my truck often cannot make it up my mildly sloped driveway in snow-which is pitiful for a 4wd 3/4 ton truck, my wifes 2wd with all season tires never so much as slips. I have even slid off the road sideways at a complete stop on a crowned road. Today I made the mistake of trying to move my snowmobile trailer 30ft in my driveway in 1 inch of snow, the truck lost traction and it resulted in sliding backwards and jackknifing the trailer, causing damage to both my truck and my trailer. I have owned several trucks with other brands of tires and have never experienced anything as bad as this tire. My last truck had Goodyear Wrangler AT's with Kevlar and they were phenomenal and will be replacing these firestones ASAP. The Firestones also hydroplane in any amount of rain- likely because there are no lateral grooves to evacuate water. Wear is not terrible for an OE tire- I have about 40% tread left at 16000 miles. If you are considering this tire please choose something else if you ever drive in snow or even in a lot of rain as these tires aren't just poor but are dangerous.

...A couple times now I've had the front ABS kick in during moderate braking on very wet roads, but that will probably improve as the tires get a bit more wear on them... the rears didn't get installed until yesterday (but they handled the heavy rainstorm we had afterwards with no issues)...
Okay, first off my truck is a 1999 GMC C3500 cab & chassis with DRW. Tirerack doesn't have it in the drop boxes so I picked something close. Second, only the front tires on the truck have 1,000 miles on them, the rears didn't get installed until yesterday due to budget limitations. So far so good though. The fronts handled fire roads in the Shenandoah National Forest with no problems. The rangers were a bit amazed to see my 10,000 lb truck (I'm an amateur radio operator, KJ4VOV, and it's fitted out with a utility back and emergency comms gear as a mobile command post) using those roads but hey, it made it. Steering response with these is noticeably better than with the BF Goodrich Commercial TA Traction tires these replaced. Wet stopping could be a bit better though. A couple times now I've had the front ABS kick in during moderate braking on very wet roads, but that will probably improve as the tires get a bit more wear on them. As I said, the rears didn't get installed until yesterday (but they handled the heavy rainstorm we had afterwards with no issues) so there's not much I can say about them at this point. I'll be back to update this review pretty regularly, at least every 10,000 until they get replaced.

...Although the tread is still ok, the traction on wet surfaces are scary and the first and only winter so far with these tires were really bad with traction in light snow...
These tires came as original equipment with my Ram 2500 4wd. I purchased the the Ram in September 2016 and its November 2017, I have 37000 miles and 85% is highway miles. Although the tread is still ok, the traction on wet surfaces are scary and the first and only winter so far with these tires were really bad with traction in light snow. Would not purchase these again. Very cheaply made in my opinion.

Customers report excellent snow performance (many 9s-10s) but note struggles on ice (scores 0-5 common). Deep snow traction receives mixed reviews with some 10s and low ratings.

...Even in 4wd, these tires will spin coming out of my driveway with just a trace of snow on the ground. That never happened in any of the tires I ran on my previous trucks...
This set of tires came standard when I purchased my 2015 Ram. These are easily the worst set of OEM tires I've ever seen. I rotate tires on all my vehicles between 5 and 10 thousand miles and I don't drive like a maniac and yet these tires are already just a hair less than half worn. At this rate I'll be needing a new set within the next year, which is bad enough, but the tires also ---- in wet weather and snow. Even in 4wd, these tires will spin coming out of my driveway with just a trace of snow on the ground. That never happened in any of the tires I ran on my previous trucks. Firestone and Ram should be ashamed to put this kind of junk on any vehicle.

...Treadwear is absolutely terrible... At 22,000 miles they are done...
Tires came with the truck when new. Treadwear is absolutely terrible. No abuse or hard driving. I have rotated them at each oil change. At 22,000 miles they are done. These are possibly the worst tires I've owed. Ram should have stuck with the BFG's.

...Tire wear is less then great, showing about 3/32nds wear in about 6K miles...
For no better word then a mediocre tire. They do a job not badly, but sure not what you would expect for a tire that's 'E' rated for a large diesel powered pickup truck. This is not a tire that should spin easily on dry pavement - it does if you get into the turbo much at all. Snow control - poor in 2wd, hohum in 4wd. Tire wear is less then great, showing about 3/32nds wear in about 6K miles - hmmm, maybe a set of Michelin's are in my future
