Good Highway tire - Not for Off Highway or Snow

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.

Firestone Destination LE2

Assumed I was purchasing the newer LE3, but not a problem since I was satisfied with the original LE2's, which gave 52K miles of quiet, even wear. If I hadn't replaced a little early, I probably could have gotten 60K miles. Just double check when purchasing to receive the improved 70K mile LE3.

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.

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.

Road-trip miles

We use our vehicle mostly to take long road-trips in. The previous tires had almost 50,000. Miles on them at replacement time. We take at least 2 road tips a year that are around 2500-3000 miles round trip. With my previous general tires that came on the vehicle I would get a solid 22 mpg. With The new firestones I get 21.8. I also notice on our first trip with the tires a slight vibration at around 79-84 miles per hour. I usually never drive this fast and I would only notice the vibration on the road-trip- in places that we could not avoid the higher speeds. I have an appointment for an oil change in a few days and have requested for my new tires that only have right at 5000 miles to be re balanced. Other than those two issues the tires are fine. We have driven through a lot of very hard rain and the tires did fine. I just hope we can get the shimmy or vibration issue resolved. The vibration is not bad. Just a slight vibration. I we didn't take road-trips I prob wouldn't notice it. But. This should not be happening. Thank you Jay B.

Purchased 1st set of Destination Tires

This is my 1st purchase of Firestone Destination tires for my Traverse. I have always purchased Firestone or Bridgestone for my vehicles. My previous tires were Bridgestone Alenza for which I had a replacement tire that was the Firestone Destination. The performance and life of the tires are what sold me and the sales promotions! Firestone makes a good tire that lasts and backs them! It all comes down to the customer service after that and find you a good store that sells the tires and won't try to talk you into more than whats needed! Tires are great... stores and their associates not so much all the time.

Very Impressed

Just got my LE3's for my Ram and oh my goodness what a difference from the Bridgestone's it came with. The truck always rode well, but it's better than new with the LE3's on it. The traction is much better along with the stability in corners. I'll be curious to see how they do in the rain. If it's anything like dry the traction, I'll be completely pleased.

Terrible tires wore out in 30000 miles.

When I first put these on, they did not handle well. Going around corners. The car would shimmy as if the sidewall was folding. It would be a little hiccup in the middle of a turn. I was going to return them, but the tire shop was no help. And the hassle made me decide to keep them. Here We are 2 years later with 30000 miles on them and they're completely worn out. They are Supposedly rated for 70000 miles. But good luck getting any kind of warranty on them since there's no way to do that. Do not buy Firestone I will never buy Firestone again. steer clear of these tires.

Great Tires!

Always rolled on Michelins and have replaced them 3 times in 120,000 miles and they were always so loud. Went with these on this go around and WOW what a difference. So quiet, fantastic. I didn't know that tires could make an impact on fuel efficiency but normally where I go through a tank of gas per week, after putting these tires on my fuel use went down about 30pct which is a big deal especially with gas $4.5 per gallon.

Firestone Destination Tires

I purchased 4 tires for my CR-V last year in September. Very good traction in the winter. With 8000 miles I ft rear tire last week so I put the temporary spare on. Turned out to be a tiny piece of glass close to the sidewall so the Firestone shop replaced it with a new one. 6 days later my low tire pressure light came on. I found a screw in the center of my right front tire. I had it patched but as of now I do not trust driving on these soft tires! I got the August issue of Motor Trend today and it shows a Honda Passport SUV that has Firestone Destination Tires. The right front went flat during the testing! Page 60. I live in a nice area and have never had flat tire problems. Normally have purchased Michelin and Goodyear tires
