Great All 'Rounder

These tires have outstanding wet traction. (Not sure why that's not an option under "attributes.") Additionally, I use them in light off-roading on my AWD Highlander and the tires work fine. I am a repeat user of these tires, and have had them on both my SUV and a 4x4 truck. They have a quiet ride, good mileage, and are reasonably priced. The only drawback is the mileage, I got about 60k, not the 70k as rated, and my use is probably pretty typical maybe 40% city and 60% highway.

Firestone Service

Well the tires are great! I did a lot of research. However, very disappointed in the morons that installed them. A couple of weeks after installation I noticed a strange feeling in the drive. I stopped at a different Firestone, closer to work, and they discovered some serious issues with the install. First, one of the wheels was almost ready to fly off as 3 of the 5 bolts that hold the wheel on were so loose they were doing nothing. Secondly, they removed all the tires and check the balance. 3 of the 4 tires were 1.5 oz out of balance. That is major! This Firestone place repaired everything, rebalanced the tires and sent me on my way with no charge. So, one bad Firestone experience was replaced by a good Firestone experience.

Excellent tires

Local Firestone center installed four of these new tires on my Durango R/T. Super quiet ride and confidence inspiring traction. Have not put them through an Upstate New York Winter yet, but I'm pretty confident they will handle whatever Mother Nature throws at them.

Great recommendation

Purchased a literal used one owner older lady that drove a 2015 Escape for 23000 miles!. Put 7 on it and realized they were the OEM Nexen tires. Not great. Called my personal Tires Plus, as always, and they said get the LE3 Firestone. It was a huge difference just driving out the door. Perfect car for Central Florida weather and travel. Noticeably more comfortable and secure.

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.

Stop Looking and Buy These Tires

These are the best tires I have owned and I could not recommend them any more highly. I have a 2014 Subaru Forester that is about 50/50 city/highway driving. It rarely is on gravel and never off-road and never at the track (or driven like it is at the track.) Nearly all the miles are on dry pavement with occasional rain and very rare snow. All of the previous tires we have had on the Forester were much noisier - including Champion Fuel Fighter and FS All Season. We noticed how much less noise there was on the highway immediately. At 75-80 mph, there used to be so much noise that it wasn't comfortable to carry on a conversation - now it is fine. We have 15,000 miles on this set and it looks like they are going to wear *much* better than the previous tires - we still have over 8/32nds tread (starting at 10/32nds) meaning we are only a quarter of the way to 2/32nds (when they have to be replaced.) When I was shopping, the Destination LE3 kept coming up on the short lists (5-8 brands/offerings - LE3 being the only FS entry in the list) of the best tires for my car. Most of the others were quite a bit more expensive. The LE3s are the most expensive that FS offers for my car, but that is still only 50% more than Firestone's least expensive (and with how well they are wearing, they may actually cost less per mile to own.) I'm very happy and confident with their performance. I have a lifetime alignment at FS and I've felt that FS has been generous with prorating remaining mileage on the old tires when I get a new set. So 5 stars across the board and I could not be happier with these tires.

Destination LE3 for F150

Good tire. Have a set with 50,000 on them, and looks like I should get another 25k-30k from them, except for one issue. One tire started to peel along the outer sidewall. The tire dealer was unable to resolve the issue with Firestone and so never did anything about it. At 50k, the tire failed to hold air and was not being treated with any warranty guidelines. The dealer stated that I would have to purchase a new set of tires, even though they still looked and worked good with 50K on them. The dealer believes I could get another 30K out of them, if all 4 were intact. I have just started seeking resolution with Firestone and hope they can resolve this situation. I don't want to spend $1200 to replace them until I have full life from them.

DO NOT BUY!!!

I have driven these tires for 30k miles and I am already really close to needing to replace the tires. I just had to replace one that had a slice in the side wall. I have had to patch the tires multiple times. The worst tires I have ever had. No durability and the wear on them is terrible. As the title says, DO NOT BUY!!!

My go to tire!

Certainly not the most expensive tire you could buy. But absolutely the best you can buy for value , longevity, reliability and performance. I have purchased these a total of 5 times for our 2 vehicles over the 9 years. I can't think of single time these tires disappointed me. Great tires all around!

Awesomeness

Really happy that I decided to purchase these tires. Big difference noticed in fuel economy, with a bump up of about 2.5 MPG. I have the 5.7 in my WK2. They perform very well in the rain also, waiting to see about snow. These tires are worth the money.
