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.

70000 Mile Warranty Claim Misleading

My local Tires Plus store recommended this tire on 12/30/20 noting the 70,000 mile limited warranty. I purchased 4 new tires based on the warranty as it was described to me. Today, 7/20/24, (with only 34,790 miles on the vehicle since these tires were purchased) Tires Plus told me that all of the tires should be replaced. Tread wear was down to 3/32. The tires were rotated every 5,000 miles since install. If you are buying these tires, as I did, based on the warranty, you need to shop for a different manufacturer's tire as Firestone's warranty mileage estimates are not even close to being accurate. My vehicle is a 2010 with only 131,440 miles on it. The vehicle gets driven approx. 20 miles per day, all below 50 mph so extreme driving conditions are not to blame.

Good in the snow!

It's not a snow tire but did an admirable job in a couple inches of new snow with hard ice underneath. Acceleration and braking were smooth without much slippage. Climbed a pretty good incline getting into my neighborhood. All without chains!! I'm pretty impressed. Rides smooth and quiet on dry pavement as well. I have about 10k on them so far.

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 tires

I purchased the Destination LE3's for my BMW. The tires ride quiet and I have already noticed a 2 mpg increase. I recently drove through a series of heavy downpours and noticed no loss of traction or hydroplaning. I hope they last as long as they are rated. So far I am quiet satisfied.

Firestone Destination LE3

Got these tires about a week ago and they have performed well in dry and rainy conditions so far. Only driven about 500 miles or so on them but provide quiet ride and with the 70,000 mile Treadwell warranty hoping for durability and long trend life. Tires were reasonably priced and the Firestone who put them on did a great job on balancing tires and replacing my old tires within about an hour as I had an appointment. Thanks Firestone!

THIS IS MY SECOND SET.

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.

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!

Long haul

I drive 110 miles per day. I needed a tire I could trust on wet roads. Purchased my first set about 6 years ago and never looked back. These are great tires. They are exceptional in the rain.

3rd set of Destination LE's

This will be the 2nd set of tires on My daughter's car. I have run 2 sets of tires on a Suburban and a Yukon XL. They have been great tires even on the Suburban which was 4WD and not AWB were great tires. Getting at least 60000+ out of them.
