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!

I bought these tires from Firestone and only had them a little over a year after the first 6 months I did a wheel alignment .. then my second alignment about 7 months after and found both front tires inner side bald and threading out . I went to firstone to complain and they basically said that it's not a tire issues .. of course they would say that ... I showed them my wheel alignment report but since I didn't have my first report they there is nothing they can do .... I will never buy or do business with Firestone again ... stay clear of Firestone

These tires are great for on highway use dry and wet conditions. Snow conditions not well, difficulty steering in corners and requires 4 wheel drive often. Off highway (gravel road) performance not well - easily punctured. Have had to repair tires 3 times in 15k miles use. Originally we purchased these when we lived in the city, however moved to rural home later. These tires are better suited for in town driving where they excel, very quiet and comfortable ride. But if you enjoy the occasional drive on gravel or mud, these will be ok. If you live on gravel or use off road heavily, these are not for you. We would have purchased tires better fit for our area, like the Destination MT or XT series, which we have on a truck. No issues with the MTs.

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.

THIS IS MY SECOND SET OF LE3 TIRES FOR MY 2015 F150 FX4. I USE TO GET BF BOODRICH ALL TERRAINS BUT I GOT TOO OLD FOR THE ROUGH RIDE AND NOISE. I GOT ABOUT 80,OOO MILES ON THE 1ST SET. THEY WORE EVENLY AND HAD A COMFORTABLE RIDE THE WHOLE LIFE OF THE TIRE. THE WHITE FIRESTONE / FIRESTONE LETTERS WITHOUT SAYING DESTINATION OR FIREHAWK OR WHATEVER TOO LOOK GOOD. I WISH THEY WERE SOLID WHITE LETTERS INSTEAD OF WHITE OUTLINE. THE PRICE IS VERY GOOD FOR THE QUATILY OF THE TIRE.

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.

Since I bought these tires it has snowed, been icy and had torrential downpours. They have been great in all these conditions. Living in New England you need a tire that can handle everything Mother Nature throws at you. Best all season tires I have had in 50 years of driving.

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.

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.

I do not have an exceptional amount of miles on these tires yet, but I am very satisfied with them so far. You can only do so much with a 4WD truck in regard to noise and ride, but these tires are so much better than what I had on before. They ride very smooth for being on a truck. I plan on replacing the tires on my minivan with the same tires.
