Firestone 006012-S Winterforce 2 UV 255/70R17 112S Studdable Winter Snow Tire

The Firestone Winterforce 2 UV (255/70R17 112S) is a studdable winter/snow tire engineered for pickup trucks, crossover utilities (CUVs), and SUVs that demand confident traction on dry, wet, snow-packed, and icy roads. Built on Firestone's proven cold-weather platform, this tire delivers reliable grip and long-lasting tread life winter after winter.

Cold-Weather Compound & Tread Design

A special cold-weather rubber compound stays pliable in freezing temperatures, maintaining surface contact and bite when all-season tires begin to harden and lose grip. The directional tread pattern features high-density, three-dimensional zig-zag sipes—thousands of interlocking biting edges that grip snow and ice while providing steering stability during cornering and braking.

Key Features:

• Studdable tread — pre-pinned for TSMI #11 studs, allowing optional studding for maximum grip on ice (where permitted by law)
• 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified — meets industry severe snow service requirements
• Deep circumferential grooves & open shoulder slots — channel slush and standing water away from the contact patch to resist hydroplaning
• Three-dimensional sipes — interlock under load for enhanced cornering stability and handling on snow, wet, and ice
• Full-depth tread features — maintain winter performance characteristics throughout the life of the tire
• Twin steel belts over a polyester casing — combine structural strength with a comfortable ride quality
• Directional tread pattern — optimized for both wet and dry performance

The Winterforce 2 UV carries the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, certifying it meets required performance criteria for use in severe snow conditions. It is backed by Firestone's standard warranty coverage, making it a strong value choice for drivers in demanding winter climates.
