Good tires so far

The tires performnace is good. I had to drive in some pretty bad PA, USA weather and they did quite well. The only thing I don't like about them is the tread wear. After about 30k miles there is only 1-2 mm left above the bars on 1 or 2 of the tires. Not sure if it is the weight of my car as this is the first SUV I have owned but I was hoping to get at least 50-60k out of these tires but they may not make it there.

Excellet tire

I purchased 4 Destination LE3 for my 2019 Ram 1500 limited. Replacing Michelin tires that only lasted 38,000 miles. I have driven about 500 miles. The tires are very quite on the road, handling is great and I'm getting about two more MPG. And saved 100.00 per tire over the Michelin. Have not had the chance to drive in a major rain, but I like the pattern on the tire to help with driving in rain.

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.

Ride, traction and more, oh my

Well it was time to get new tires for my Ridgeline and Firestone has always been my first choice for getting them. I was happy with the installation. The truck's ride and handing seemed to improve with the new tires. Steering felt more stable and responsive. Tires are never an inexpensive necessity but I felt these tires were worth the investment.

Best Tire We've Had On Our Vehicle Yet

The Firestone Destination L3 is the best wearing, longest life tire we've ever had on our 2014 Nissan Rogue SV. We have well over 250,000 miles on our vehicle and have had a couple of sets of Goodyears and a set of Coopers that didn't last anywhere near as long as these Firestone tires. We always keep up on scheduled rotations and maintenance without any issues.

New

I replaced Goodyear Wranglers with these to get better traction on wet roads. The wet traction is definitely better. The first thing I noticed is the steering is a little squirrely with these tires. It's like I have to really pay attention to the wheel and constantly correct or else I'm drifting from side to side in the lane. The goodyears did not do this. Could be they have the air psi too high from 40 to 43. I might deflate them to 36 psi and see how that does. Not as smooth as I'd hoped either; or as quite.

Good tire

Good tire for the money. Just purchased and no complaints so far. Ride is quiet but only had dry weather driving so far. Can't say what it will be like in rain and snow this year yet. Had a bit of a sticker shock when I purchased them from a privately owned shop, but service was fast and good, so not gonna complain about that.

LE3 Tires

Ive been a Bridgestone Tires customer for over 20 years now on cars trucks & Rv's , but when my Firestone Tire store were i make all my Tire purchases suggested that i look at these tires,,,, well at first i said NO .. but then he showed me the numbers that the others that have ran these tires in my area & their shares about them.. So reluctantly i agreed to try them with a total 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE.. after the first fall weather and snow winter in Northwest Illinois i was a NOW fan of the Firestone LE3 tires .. I live in south western Oregon Now and will be looking for these tires while shopping this week.. Hopefully they are still as good as my last set turned out to be....FYI... I WOULDN'T suggest these for Trucks !! i would only use for SUV & Cars.... Happy Trails Too You (-:

Good in the snow!

It's not a snow tire but did an admirable job in a couple inches of new snow with hard ice underneath. Acceleration and braking were smooth without much slippage. Climbed a pretty good incline getting into my neighborhood. All without chains!! I'm pretty impressed. Rides smooth and quiet on dry pavement as well. I have about 10k on them so far.

Would Recommend

Although the tires are only 4 days old I have noticed a big difference. It had come to the point where I thought I may need new shocks but my wife being right about everything else suggested I try getting new tires so being the husband that always listens to his wife yeah right so I decided to try these and I can say it feels like I bought a new truck it rides great handles great and very little noise I know there new and I don't know how long this will last but right now I'm satisfied.
