New quiet tires

I have the previous LE 2 on my other vehicle and I am so pleased I went with these LE 3 on our second vehicle. Much more quieter then the original tires and although we haven't had them long we are pleased so far. The Firestone dealer was great as well. Used the web site to order and make appointment and was serviced upon arrival.

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.

Firestone Destination LE3

Got these tires about a week ago and they have performed well in dry and rainy conditions so far. Only driven about 500 miles or so on them but provide quiet ride and with the 70,000 mile Treadwell warranty hoping for durability and long trend life. Tires were reasonably priced and the Firestone who put them on did a great job on balancing tires and replacing my old tires within about an hour as I had an appointment. Thanks Firestone!

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.

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.

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.

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!

Strong armed

Went in to fix a flat and was told that I had to replace all 4 tires because the flat couldn't be fixed and they couldn't put a different tire on my car than the others. I asked for a less expensive tire but they only had 3 in stock. It was 5pm and they were closing at 7pm. I spent $1100 to fix a flat. STAY AWAY FROM FIRESTONE IN DANVERS MASS IF YOU'RE A WOMAN ALONE.

Buyer Beware

Purchased these for my F150 and one tire developed a sidewall bulge at around 20 days / 1000mi. Firestone is refusing to replace this tire or offer refund because it was deemed to be caused by a "Road Hazard or Improper Installation". I was denied a free replacement and had to pay for 1 new tire out of pocket, not very happy. Given Firestone's past blowout reputation, I'm not feeling very good about these anymore and will never again buy Firestone.
