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.

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.

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 (-:

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.

Smooth, Quiet Ride

I learned how good Firestone tires are when I bought a used Honda Ridgeline. After driving several Ridgelines this one had the smoothest, quietest ride of them all. I was surprised to see that all four of the tires on it were Firestones. So for my Ford Ranger, of course I bought four Firestone Destination tires. I am not surprised that the truck rides smoother and quieter than it did with its previous tires. I usually want to put Michelins on my vehicles. But now I have a new favorite tire brand. And with a 70,000 mile warrantee, I am convinced that these Firestone Tires are the best tires you can buy. I think Firestone Tires are the most underrated tire brand on the market. My father was true car guy. He was an aircraft mechanic in the Navy during World War Two. He taught me a lot about cars. Way back in the nineteen sixties and seventies he always relied on Firestones tires for his cars. And now, long after he passed, I am still learning from him. Thanks Dad, and Thank you, Firestone.

Back on the Road Again

Love saving the money on gas with these smaller tires. Got them as a birthday gift after my dad found out i was carrying an portable airtank around with me just to get from point A to point B. It was a wonderful surprise and really not a moment too soon! They also sent him a gift card afterwards for the purchase. Thanks so much Dad!!! Love ya!!! ~♡Ambi B.

So far so good

Have only driven about 500 miles so far on these tires. Only got 19000 miles on the factory tires on my SUV. They ride smoothly & quite. Did my research on them before purchasing & was quite satisfied with what I read. I hope there are also good in the winter snow that's coming. So far I would recommend these.

Missing chunks

After 15,000 miles, all 4 of my tires are missing chunks and have several cracks about to leave chunks out. I went to see if they were under warranty. Salesman said it was from driving on a dirt road so no. I haven't had a flat yet so roadside assistance doesn't replace them. I do not off-road this truck. I have less than 1/8 mile of dirt between my house and paved highway. How can you make a truck tire that can't handle dirt?

FIRESTONE LE3

I made a bad mistake installing these tires. They seem to have a manufactures defect. Before replacing the hankook factory installed tires on my truck, No vibration at any speed. Now after installation of these new FIRESTONE LE3, VIBRATION,I even brought truck back in and the manager rebalanced and even though a little better, still vibrates! I'm not happy at all and would spend the time to have a NEW set of anything that would NOT vibrated installed. I paid for road hazard warranty but that only matters if I ruin a tire not if I'm just not happy with your product's performance. Lemon tires!
