Best Tire We've Had On Our Vehicle Yet

The Firestone Destination L3 is the best wearing, longest life tire we've ever had on our 2014 Nissan Rogue SV. We have well over 250,000 miles on our vehicle and have had a couple of sets of Goodyears and a set of Coopers that didn't last anywhere near as long as these Firestone tires. We always keep up on scheduled rotations and maintenance without any issues.

These are great all around tires

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.

Pleasant Purchase

I am very pleased with these tires thus far. Smooth, comfortable, and quiet drive. Liking the way they hug the road. Not sure about my fuel savings just yet with the price of gasoline nowadays, but overall the mileage per fill-up has been good. I am hopeful they remain durable as well. Purchased for my SUV and all my driving, which is very minimum, is strictly for pleasure. However, I would recommend this tire as an option for any type usage.

Great recommendation

Purchased a literal used one owner older lady that drove a 2015 Escape for 23000 miles!. Put 7 on it and realized they were the OEM Nexen tires. Not great. Called my personal Tires Plus, as always, and they said get the LE3 Firestone. It was a huge difference just driving out the door. Perfect car for Central Florida weather and travel. Noticeably more comfortable and secure.

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!

New LE3's

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.

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.

Firestone Destination Tires

I purchased 4 tires for my CR-V last year in September. Very good traction in the winter. With 8000 miles I ft rear tire last week so I put the temporary spare on. Turned out to be a tiny piece of glass close to the sidewall so the Firestone shop replaced it with a new one. 6 days later my low tire pressure light came on. I found a screw in the center of my right front tire. I had it patched but as of now I do not trust driving on these soft tires! I got the August issue of Motor Trend today and it shows a Honda Passport SUV that has Firestone Destination Tires. The right front went flat during the testing! Page 60. I live in a nice area and have never had flat tire problems. Normally have purchased Michelin and Goodyear tires

Good Highway tire - Not for Off Highway or Snow

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.

FIRESTONE LE3

I made a bad mistake installing these tires. They seem to have a manufactures defect. Before replacing the hankook factory installed tires on my truck, No vibration at any speed. Now after installation of these new FIRESTONE LE3, VIBRATION,I even brought truck back in and the manager rebalanced and even though a little better, still vibrates! I'm not happy at all and would spend the time to have a NEW set of anything that would NOT vibrated installed. I paid for road hazard warranty but that only matters if I ruin a tire not if I'm just not happy with your product's performance. Lemon tires!
