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.

Best Tires So Far

These are the best tires purchased for this or any of our cars. Being a mostly dry climate we wanted a tire to perform well in spring and summer yet still have traction in the winter. These Destination LE3's have all of the above. We're very happy with our purchase and the Store Manager, Drew, gave us excellent customer service.

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.

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.

Firestone Destination LE3

These are the best tires I have had on my vehicle. They give you the best ride & traction you could ask for in wet & dry conditions. You get a smooth & very quite ride. They also give traction in situations where OTHER DRIVERS CANNOT SEEM TO STAY IN THEIR LANE OR KEEP EYES ON THE ROAD ( texting, rubber necking, videoing ). Not paying attention to driving . I could not as for a better tire to have on my vehicle.

2010 Dodge Ram 1500

Nice all season tire for my truck that mostly sees highway use. Hopefully these tires will provide the advertised mileage- time will tell. They don't seem as quiet as Michelin tires I had previously however, the mileage I received from the Michelins was disappointing. Nice tires so far.

Supposed to be the best

I haven't had tires for very long and I don't drive off road. I noticed a low pressure light and checked the tire and it had a little "stick" in the side wall. Seems to me the tire isn't strong enough for a stick! I wanted to add a picture but there isn't an option.

Destination LE3 for F150

Good tire. Have a set with 50,000 on them, and looks like I should get another 25k-30k from them, except for one issue. One tire started to peel along the outer sidewall. The tire dealer was unable to resolve the issue with Firestone and so never did anything about it. At 50k, the tire failed to hold air and was not being treated with any warranty guidelines. The dealer stated that I would have to purchase a new set of tires, even though they still looked and worked good with 50K on them. The dealer believes I could get another 30K out of them, if all 4 were intact. I have just started seeking resolution with Firestone and hope they can resolve this situation. I don't want to spend $1200 to replace them until I have full life from them.
