Firestone Destination

I replaced original GMC tires that had a great ride around town and on the highway. And I got 23mpg when I kept speed at 70. But If the road was older or broken the ride was terrible and noise outrageous. Because we travel, I needed to correct this. The new Firestones are quiet everywhere, but have changed our ride. We feel the road much more. Although quiet we feel any imperfections. We had our tire shop balance them at 200 miles. That helped but our overall ride around town isn't as smooth as it was. I'm wondering if I should have gotten a wider tire? The long highway drive this winter should be better.

FIRESTONE LE3

I made a bad mistake installing these tires. They seem to have a manufactures defect. Before replacing the hankook factory installed tires on my truck, No vibration at any speed. Now after installation of these new FIRESTONE LE3, VIBRATION,I even brought truck back in and the manager rebalanced and even though a little better, still vibrates! I'm not happy at all and would spend the time to have a NEW set of anything that would NOT vibrated installed. I paid for road hazard warranty but that only matters if I ruin a tire not if I'm just not happy with your product's performance. Lemon tires!

HAPPY SURPRISE

I PUT MY SET OF NEW TIRES AT 55,000 MILES. I DID NOT EXPECT THE TIRES TO LAST AS LONG AS THEY DID. I RAN HANKOOKS ON THIS VEHICLE BUT THEY LAST 20,000 MILES AND THEY HAD TO BE REPLACED WITH THESE. IVE USED MICHELIN, GOODYEAR AND PIRELI BEFORE. I HAVE SURPRISE THAT THESE ARE A GREAT ALTERNATE TO THOSE COMPANY AND THE PRODUCT IS SOLID AND WORKS GREAT. THE RIDE IS SMOOTH AND QUIET, LOW TO NO ROAD NOISE UNTIL ABOUT 125,000-130,000 MILES. THEY HANDLE GREAT IN SNOW AND IN ICE. THESE ARE REASONS WHY I WILL STAY WITH THESE TIRES AND CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD. THEY DID JUMP UP IN PRICE FROM WHAT I INITIALLY PAID FOR THE OTHER SET. I WILL NOT HESITATE TO CONTINUE WITH WHAT IS WORKING FOR ME.

Intolerable ride on Iowa roads

These tires can't handle the tining (groves carved into the concrete in the direction of travel) of a large amount of Iowa roads. These groves in the road are supposed to improve drainage and provide more traction. Unfortunately, with these tires, there is too much traction. Steering is difficult and exhausting if traveling on a long stretch of highway. The car shifts all over, making an extremely uncomfortable ride. At one point, after 1.5 hours of driving, an alarm went off on my dashboard telling me I need to keep both hands on the wheel. I DID have both hands on the wheel for the entire 1.5 hours in order to keep the vehicle on the road. These are my first Firestone tires, previous tires I have owned never had this issue. I heard they might need to be "broken-in," so I have given them a chance. 5,000 miles later, there is no improvement. I have had everything else on the car that could be causing the problem checked out - alignment, suspension, etc. No issues, just the tires. I have been to the tire dealer to see if they could help me with getting different tires, like maybe some credit since the tires aren't very old - I thought Firestone would have some sort of customer satisfaction built into their warranty. The dealer said there is nothing they can do, I will have to buy new tires if I don't like them. I will definitely have to get new tires, I can't take another 50,000+ miles of this. I will NOT buy Firestone again! If you travel on tined highways, avoid these tires!

Back on the Road Again

Love saving the money on gas with these smaller tires. Got them as a birthday gift after my dad found out i was carrying an portable airtank around with me just to get from point A to point B. It was a wonderful surprise and really not a moment too soon! They also sent him a gift card afterwards for the purchase. Thanks so much Dad!!! Love ya!!! ~♡Ambi B.

Great tire

First the service was awesome and Reed Mckinley the technician was knowledgeable and had great communication skills told me to keep an eye on things that may need servicing in the future. Tyler his boss was very helpful in getting my issues resolved. Thank you very much.

LE3 on my Ridgeline

My Ridgeline came with the Destination LE2 tires and they were great. At 61,700 miles, it was time to replace them and I chose the newer model Destination LE3. I'm very pleased with the LE3. The ride and road noise is even better than the LE2. Handling in the rain feels sure-footed and stable. I haven't had them long enough to say much about durability and can't comment about snow performance, it's late summer in Mississippi, but if you liked the LE2, you'll love the Destination LE3.

Great tire for better price

I always purchased dealer recommended tire for my MDX, either Bridgestone or Michellene. I got a nail on my tire on Sunday when the dealer was closed. I went to my local firestone shop to give it a try and they recommended this tire which I find as good as or better than the dealer recommended tires and on top of that I saved about 30% more on 4 tires. The service was prompt, and 4 tires were replaced with brand new Firestone tires. I could not be happier. I will be a long-time firestone customer moving forward. No need to feed your fat dealer; get out and liberate yourself from their hefty price.

Replaced old set of Destination tires.

I've always had good luck with these tires. Had an older version on the Jeep I owned. Was time for a new set of tires on my truck. These are quiet, don't slip or slide in wet conditions and make my truck handle well. They hold up well to my driving style and look good on the truck. I would definitely recommend these tires if you're looking for a great set. They were a little pricey, but well worth the money.
