I have driven the 8 hour trip from Ohio to South Carolina countless times and these tires are quite and smooth. I have had excellent control at high speeds through deep puddles (they aren't prone to hydroplaning), I have driven on muddy gravel hunting roads in the mountains of North Carolina and never had traction issues, I have gotten through up to a foot of snow with no issues, and never gotten stuck as long as I have had them. Overall I think they are a great tire if you want to have street tires that can get you through some occasional off road use. The only reason I rate the traction with four stars is because they aren't an all terrain tire and occasionally they slip on wet pavement in you try to accelerate quickly from a stop.

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!

We wanted to check out Texas and we had a good trip because of the brand new tires that we bought from the Peerless Tires store in Gering Nebraska the tire guy gave us a good deal and we appreciate the information and the protection we were in good hands with the tires overall.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I replaced my set of LE2's today with the LE3 model. My old set had 53K miles, but they were 10 years old, and I have a trip from TN to AZ this month. The old set had plenty of tread left, and have performed very well, dry, rain and some snow. I am sold on these tires and hope the LE3's perform as well as the old ones have. My Ranger is a 4 cylinder 2WD and I drive like an old man.

I've always had good luck with these tires. Had an older version on the Jeep I owned. Was time for a new set of tires on my truck. These are quiet, don't slip or slide in wet conditions and make my truck handle well. They hold up well to my driving style and look good on the truck. I would definitely recommend these tires if you're looking for a great set. They were a little pricey, but well worth the money.

Local Firestone center installed four of these new tires on my Durango R/T. Super quiet ride and confidence inspiring traction. Have not put them through an Upstate New York Winter yet, but I'm pretty confident they will handle whatever Mother Nature throws at them.
