Most customers rate the Firestone Transforce HT's wet traction between 7-10, with many 9s and 10s highlighting confident grip and hydroplaning resistance in all-season highway conditions.

...Wet weather traction is a lot better. I do a lot of over the road driving and I feel a lot more comfortable now driving in foul weather.
I really like these tires. I had a set of Good for a Year SRAs tires on before and what a night and day difference. These tires ride better. Wet weather traction is "a lot" better. I do a lot of over the road driving and I feel a lot more comfortable now driving in foul weather.

I noticed a big improvement over my previous tires in wet and dry traction...
I noticed a big improvement over my previous tires in wet and dry traction. What I like best about these tires, is the stability and handling when hauling my 35 foot travel trailer. They are also very quiet! I am very pleased at their on pavement performance. This will come as no surprise but their off road capability isn't great, but then again they are rated for the highway (HT) and not all terrain (AT). I would recommend these tires for those who need an E load rated tire that plan to load them fairly heavy. These are a good tire for the money. I will buy these again when I need tires, but by looking at the tread, it looks that will be a while.

This tire provides good traction on dry and wet roads... Noise level is very good even as the tire has worn as well as the traction in dry and wet conditions...
This tire provides good traction on dry and wet roads. It's fairly well mannered and long wearing however the first 30% of the tread depth wore quicker than expected.Seems like the wear is slowing down as the tire ages (if that's even possible). Noise level is very good even as the tire has worn as well as the traction in dry and wet conditions. The only complaint has been the cornering and general road feel. The tire does seem to wander a little especially on uneven and crowned road surfaces and this was especially noticed when the tire was new. I've either gotten used to it or its not as bad now with 40,000+ miles. I will replace these in approximately 5 to 10 thousand more miles so they should easily go 50 to 55 thousand and still be legal. I'm satisfied with the tire for quality, handling, and price. Will consider buying again.

Most customers report excellent dry traction with scores of 9-10, highlighting reliable grip and responsive handling. A few lower scores indicate occasional concerns, but overall performance excels in highway conditions.

...They are very good tires in the rain and on both dry roads and on dirt roads...
I put these on as a replacement for a set of Michelins ,big mistake these tires are noisy, and on the rear of a 2002 Dodge 2500 2x4 Turbo Diesel the rears wore very fast and it's time to find a replacement for the rear tires after 2 1/2 years of ownership. They are very good tires in the rain and on both dry roads and dirt roads but againI can hear them over my Cummins.

...On the highway the tires are great smooth ride, not much road noise, and so far seem to hold their own on wet surfaces snow and ice.
I have a Nissan 2012 NV 2500 HD so these Firestone TransForce HT tires came with my vehicle. I have 13,400 miles on them over a 4yr period tires still look new, I carry about 2500 hundred pounds of weight in the vehicle since I got the vehicle. I use the vehicle for my business carpet cleaning equipment. On the highway the tires are great smooth ride, not much road noise, and so far seem to hold their own on wet surfaces snow and ice. Haven't had much experience with them off-road cos vehicle just too heavy to do that. Have notice that on some back road that are not well taken care of, can be a little bumpy noisy and rough, but I attribute that more so to bad road. Overall can't really complain I would give these tires 3 stars out of 5. Have read other reviews and am a little perplexed cos seems to be 60 percent bad reviews and about 40 percent good reviews. I must be in that 40 percent good review group. I must say I am an easy going driver, and keep tires inflated at 80 psi back two tires and rotate and balance them every 6000 miles. Maybe that's the difference good maintenance. From what I can see these tires should go 40,000 or 50,000 miles pretty easy, but at the rate I'm traveling per yr may not get there for another 8yrs, and a lot can happen between now and then. Over-all good tire so far, hope this has been helpful.

...My truck handles very good and the ride is very comfortable...
I really like these tires, they look good and have good deep thread. My truck handles very good and the ride is very comfortable. I've had them for over one year and have no complaints here. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for for a good heavy duty work tire.

I just replaced my Michelin LTX/Load E with the fstone, and cannot believe how smooth the new tires ride!...
I just replaced my Michelin LTX/Load E with the fstone, and cannot believe how smooth the new tires ride! I have dedicated snow tires, so do not need snow/ice traction, but on the highway, you cannot go wrong with this tire! Also, the tread looks a little more agressive than other "highway" all-season tires, so at least it still looks like a "truck tire", but does not have the noise of an AT tire.

Most customers rate treadwear as excellent, with scores of 9-10 highlighting impressive longevity. While some note uneven wear, the majority experience aligns with its all-season design for reliable tread life.

...Have 120,000 miles on tires and probably 10K-20K treadwear left. Have always used these tires on three vans over 10 years, will keep doing so.
I drive a Chevy Express 2500 gasoline cargo van, mostly highway, hauling up to 2700 pounds, in all 48 continental states, in all weather. I do avoid heavy snow and ice, but usual winter weather is not a problem. Have 120,000 miles on tires and probably 10K-20K treadwear left. Have always used these tires on three vans over 10 years, will keep doing so.

...137,000 miles and still had tread, but replaced anyway. (I'm sure I could have gotten 150,000). Current set has 18,000 and still at 11/32...
This is my third set. The first was on it when I bought my van. I put 95,000 miles on that set, so I was sold. Second set went 137,000 miles and still had tread, but replaced anyway. (I'm sure I could have gotten 150,000 ). Current set has 18,000 and still at 11/32. I drive van expedite, so mostly Highway, but have driven every road type, and every weather condition. In 250,000 miles on this vehicle, I have never had an alignment or changed any front suspension parts. I do rotate every 10,000 miles. Never had so much as a low tire pressure much less a flat.

Winter traction disappoints with many ratings between 0-5 and mixed 6s. Customers report lack of snow traction, slippery in winter conditions, and getting stuck despite being an all-season tire.

These show M&S on the side wall. Nothing could be further from the truth. I had to have my pick-up in 4 wheel drive to move in 2 inches of snow. On shallow muddy trails they lost traction and would not hold in place but started sliding backwards. Not fun when heading for a drop-off.

...zero traction on the ice...
These are the OE tire on my RAM. They ride well, and are silly quiet. They tend to wallow, and bulge quite a bit. It makes the ride softer, but also slows down steering response. They have done very well in most conditions with 2 exceptions. I had to go to 4x4 to get my travel trailer out of the soft silt/sand at the last campground. There was zero traction on the ice. Can't say much about trwad life yet with only 8500 miles on them.
