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

just bought Destination LE3's

Just bought 4 Destination P255/55-R20 LE3's for my 2016 Buick Enclave at advice of local trusted Firestone Dealer who has sold me tires for years and provided service support for my family's vehicles. Replaced 4 Bridgestone P255/55-R20's that wore well for 5 years & 50,000 miles but developed some cracks in the grooves. New Destinations are great tires so far, super smooth on some local super bumpy brick streets, and quiet on 70 mph freeways. I gave 5 stars for all attributes except durability; can't say much about durability since they are only 2 weeks old.

Buyer Beware

Purchased these for my F150 and one tire developed a sidewall bulge at around 20 days / 1000mi. Firestone is refusing to replace this tire or offer refund because it was deemed to be caused by a "Road Hazard or Improper Installation". I was denied a free replacement and had to pay for 1 new tire out of pocket, not very happy. Given Firestone's past blowout reputation, I'm not feeling very good about these anymore and will never again buy Firestone.

1 month review

Had tires about 1 month. I typically drive 56-60 miles/day on an average day. Husband noted early on the tires were quiet when driving the interstate highway. We have all wheel drive vehicle and wanted a tire that would work with snow. At times we get some decent sized drifts. Looking forward to seeing how this brand of ties with this vehicle handles the snow.

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.

Great All 'Rounder

These tires have outstanding wet traction. (Not sure why that's not an option under "attributes.") Additionally, I use them in light off-roading on my AWD Highlander and the tires work fine. I am a repeat user of these tires, and have had them on both my SUV and a 4x4 truck. They have a quiet ride, good mileage, and are reasonably priced. The only drawback is the mileage, I got about 60k, not the 70k as rated, and my use is probably pretty typical maybe 40% city and 60% highway.

Quiet Ride!

Replaced 4 Bridgeton tires with plenty of mileage left because they provided a hard noisy ride that I could no longer tolerate. This is the 7th set of Destination tires on 5 vehicles and these are the smoothest, quietest tires out there. Also these tires are good in mud, snow and Florida concrete roadways.

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!

Firestone Destination

This is my 2nd set Of Firestone Destinations. I drive mainly local and highway. But they handle and ride great. I've had them in snow,mud and light off road fun. I get every mile outta these tires they say. 70 thousand plus. And I probably could of got more. But I don't push when it comes to safety in my truck.

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.
