Best Tire I've ever owned

Got a set of 4 of these tires about 2 months ago. Immediately felt a very improved ride, tire noise reduction and handling of my Sorento. I never realized how much a great tire could make in the performance of a vehicle. It's a pleasure to drive my car again. Very little to no tire noise inside the car. Holds the road perfectly and feels like I am driving on a cloud. Great handling in inclement weather too. These tires are worth every penny and the 70K warranty is a plus. Thank you Firestone for making a remarkable tire.

1 month review

Had tires about 1 month. I typically drive 56-60 miles/day on an average day. Husband noted early on the tires were quiet when driving the interstate highway. We have all wheel drive vehicle and wanted a tire that would work with snow. At times we get some decent sized drifts. Looking forward to seeing how this brand of ties with this vehicle handles the snow.

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.

Great tire

These tires (4) were on the Bronco Sport when we purchased it new and we drove these tires past the wear bars. They performed perfectly for 51k miles. We replaced them with the same exact tires recently and are very pleased so far. Highly recommend them for this application.

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!

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.

New LE3's

I replaced my set of LE2's today with the LE3 model. My old set had 53K miles, but they were 10 years old, and I have a trip from TN to AZ this month. The old set had plenty of tread left, and have performed very well, dry, rain and some snow. I am sold on these tires and hope the LE3's perform as well as the old ones have. My Ranger is a 4 cylinder 2WD and I drive like an old man.

5th Set of Destinations

In general I love this tire for large passenger vehicles and light trucks. Just purchased a set of LE3 for my Trailblazer after getting the full mileage from my last set (LE2). (60,000 with a fair amount of tread to spare; bought new because sidewalls were drying out and cracking). The ride and durability are best in class. FYI I had 2 sets of Destinations (LE and LE2) when I had a Suburban, got great mileage out of the tires and thought they were stable and quiet. Recently replaced a set of Bridgestone Turanza Serenity tires on my 2006 Hemi Charger with Destination LE3 tires. I had two sets of the Serenities on it. Liked the first set, did not really like the second. They felt twitchier. The ride with Destinations is much superior and the car is glued to the road. The stiffer sidewalls on the Destination make it a great tire for larger passenger cars.

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.

Firestone Destination

These Firestone Destination LE3's are my 2nd set. The first set replaced the more aggressive off-road type tires that were on the car when I bought it. The LE3's are a much more quiet and comfortable ride, and I did get the then rated 60,000 miles on them. I just put the new set on my Honda Pilot, and am very pleased with them. I am disappointed that the white accent lettering is no longer available, but hopefully will get 70,000 miles on this set!
