My to go tire

I bought these for the first time about 3 years ago since it had a deal around thanksgiving. Works nice in winter and summer. We take our highlander everywhere when we travel so they worn out but bought them again last month because I like the way it ride plus there's always deals on them. Great tire for any season we'll definitely buy again once it comes time.

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.

Destination LE3 tires-I'm happy!

I spent a while looking at different tires before deciding these were the ones for my Explorer. I liked the tread pattern, the longer milage wear and price! As soon as I got in the road with the new tires I could tell a difference with the new tires. Nice smooth ride, no noise and great traction when it rains. I'm so happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend these tires!

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.

Bought these as an OEM Replacement

OEM tires were another brand and decided to replace with trusted Firestone Destination replacements at 40,000 miles. Even though we have only 1,000 miles+ on the new set, we're very pleased with the Firestones. This is the 5th set of Destination's I've bought over time with my wife's Jeep Liberty included. Quiet ride and improved mileage are the reason I'm pleased with our Destination 3 replacement tires.

Firestone Service

Well the tires are great! I did a lot of research. However, very disappointed in the morons that installed them. A couple of weeks after installation I noticed a strange feeling in the drive. I stopped at a different Firestone, closer to work, and they discovered some serious issues with the install. First, one of the wheels was almost ready to fly off as 3 of the 5 bolts that hold the wheel on were so loose they were doing nothing. Secondly, they removed all the tires and check the balance. 3 of the 4 tires were 1.5 oz out of balance. That is major! This Firestone place repaired everything, rebalanced the tires and sent me on my way with no charge. So, one bad Firestone experience was replaced by a good Firestone experience.

Badd1

The new Destination 3 tires have immediately provided a much smoother and more quiet ride, compared to my old tires. The store manager showed me the options available and helped me determine the best tires for my pickup. The fact that I got a rebate was a huge bonus.

My 5th set of Destination's

I have 235,000 miles on my Chevy Silverado. I've run nothing but the Firestone Destination LE's The Tires has many great attributes. They are extremely quiet for a light truck tire. Even though the tread design does not look aggressive, does very well in snow and ice. They wear evenly across the tread no I usually wear patterns. If There is is a negative it's the tread life. On average I get between 40 and 45,000 miles on a set. Overall a great tire

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!

Jeep on Grooved highways

I find my Jeep handles angerously on highway roads that are grooved, especially in winter. We have plenty in Michigan. The car wanders all over the lanes and really have to have 2 hands on the wheel at all times. Have had car checked at Jeep dealership for bad wheel bearing,tires balanced and rotated, and now they put two new tires on(as a goodwill gesture).. no difference in the drive. Firestone dealership could not test drive due to employee shortage. Unsatifactory response from 1-800 customer care/warrenty.Dangerous would not recommend, and definately will not buy Firestone again.
