What's more, folks that live in Bakersfield, VT, Jeffersonville, VT, and so on - or in other words in an area where you have a 50/50 shot of living or driving on a dirt road - are sure to hit potholes, gravel, and other potential road hazards on a daily basis.

The Firestone Destination A/T all season tire in Vermont features patented technology that only Firestone uses - and its used effectively. By designing and implementing the UNI-T Technology system, Firestone Destination A/T tires not only fit trucks and SUVs but excel in all seasons including rain, dry roads, and light to moderate snow, and thanks to the large range of sizes they hold on well on the trails or off-road better than the competition when coupled with the superior traction of the StabiliTrak system on GM and Chevrolet vehicles. The following is a breakdown of Firestone's UNI-T Technology:
Tuned performance - a computer optimized component system (COCS)
The Firestone tire, unlike many would be competitors, gives you the smoothest ride available at a competitive price. Made of the choicest materials and tire rubber compounds, the FR710 all season tire from Firestone's production method, COCS or computer optimized component system, yields an incredible shape, perfect down to the micro measurement. By using Firestone's patented computer optimized component system, the FR710 can be honed to a perfect shape allowing for comfort and stability in a variety of road and weather conditions.
Roll rounder - O-bead technology
Firestone's patented O-bead technology not only makes the tire more advanced than nearly any other but it also keeps the rubber compounds together - in other words, it makes the tire last. Using small, round "beads" of a silica compound, the O-bead technology strengthens the steel cables that keep the tire bonded, both in terms of the tire's rubber compound as well as the tire to wheel connection. The round design (hence O-bead) are also far more round than previous iterations of Firestone tires, keeping the overall shape of the tire rounder and more consistent throughout.
Longer lasting - long link carbon composition
By scientifically enhancing the average carbon molecule and stretching it far past its natural length, the Firestone tire's long link carbon composition results in a tire comprised of a much greater molecular pull. This in turn keeps the rubber stronger and together for a longer time leading to a a more secure drive and a longer tire life over the duration.
