[QUOTE="John G, post: 892475, member: 63360"] When I bought my 2001 ST new, it came with the Firestone Wilderness AT that were recalled by Ford (not Firestone) after the infamous firestorm of publicity about blowouts and rollovers. Lately, the Goodyears that Ford gave me as part of the recall still had enough tread after about 8 years, but they spun on wet pavement because they were so old. (I'm a low mileage driver.) With great trepidation about the Firestone brand, I bought Firestone Destination A/T tires recently. The price was much better than the Bridgestone and other brands that the Firestone store sells. I suppose that the Firestone brand got hurt so much from the Ford recall publicity that it's now the cheap brand for that company. Anyway, after a few hundred miles, I've found that the Destination A/T is nice and quiet on the highway, and the wet traction seems to be just fine. I'll know about traction in snow soon enough, since I live in the Midwest. [/QUOTE]
