In 2006, California-based Royal Marketing Inc. made a deal to distribute photographic paper made by China Lucky Film Corp. It wasn't long before Royal Marketing's customers started to complain that the paper was junk, and the company's vice president, Farshid Ourian, learned it did not meet U.S. quality standards.

I know the Destinations are better than the SRA's but than I wasn't the one around here lumping "all" firestone tires into the crap category. That other guy was right about man, you're pretty much a blowhard jerk that likes to act like you know everything when in reality, you really aren't that bright. Something else I've been wondering about is the fact that you've generated over five thousand posts in fifteen months. I don't think you even have Jeep pal, and if you do you never drive it because obviously you live on this forum.
You and I joined the same month and year and you have 4800 (roughly) more posts than I do. Get a life.

You know, you're right. I DO have a life. I live on disability, bacause I was injured on the job by a practical joke. I've told the story on here before. More than once. So, my life pretty much consists OF the computer, and the few things that I CAN do when I am feeling well, including messin with the Jeep I DO have and there are plenty pics of on here, AND more than one member has seen. I was bein funny with the braille comment....but I wouldn't ever intentionally be cruel. So with that, screw all of yall. Next time someone sends a PM asking my opinion on something....which happens at least once a week, I won't be here to answer. I don't have to take this kinda crap. You're absolutely right.

Now, as I was saying, I wouldn't want any tire that was sold exclusively at Wal-Mart, Goodyear or not.
Lot's of guys swear by the Springfield XD pistols for instance, but it's really just a rebadged Croatian pistol. Springfield puts their stamp on it and jacks up the price a couple hundred bucks.
I wouldn't be surprised if something like that was happening with this tire. I don't know that it is, but again, it's Wal-Mart and I just don't like Wal-Mart so maybe it's my bias, but there it is.

Black08X, I owe you an apology friend. So, here it is. I'm sorry. I guess I say a lot of things jokingly that don't get taken that way, and that's my fault.
Now....about the tread design.......take a look at the Toyo Open Countyr MT. Like the Firestone, it's surprisingly similar. After some careful thought, I've thought about the new Goodyears here, the Hankooks and one or two more...but I think I am going to go with the Goodyear Duratecs. I've changed my mind so much though, who the hell knows?
