About This Tire

The Firestone Winterforce LT 215/85R16 is a studdable winter tire, designed for medium- and heavy-duty commercial vans, SUVs and pickup trucks that need reliable cold-weather traction and durability. Its directional tread pattern and winter compound focus on providing grip across snow, ice, and wet winter conditions while maintaining the load-carrying capacity required for work vehicles.

The tire features an aggressive directional tread design with high-density siping throughout independent tread blocks for loose snow traction, plus intermediate and shoulder blocks that accept studs for enhanced grip on hard-packed snow and ice. Built with twin steel belts over a polyester casing and available in Load Range E (10-ply rated) construction, it combines the strength needed for heavy loads with reasonable ride quality. Driver feedback indicates strong performance in both wet and dry winter conditions, with good comfort levels and solid treadwear for a dedicated winter tire.

Compared to all-season tires, it prioritizes maximum winter traction and can handle the demanding loads of commercial and heavy-duty applications. Overall, it's a solid choice for work trucks and heavy SUVs used primarily for commercial purposes or heavy hauling in winter climates.
