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!

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.

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.

Went with Firestone a 2nd Time

I had Firestone Destination LE3's on my last vehicle. They performed well. When I purchased a newer vehicle this past March the tires on that vehicle were way past their warranty. So I again purchased Firestone LE3's. The quality of the ride was greatly improved. The price was good and Firestone stands behind these tires.

4 NEW TIRES

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE 1.5 YEARS AGO AND THE MASTERCRAFT LSR TIRES ON IT WERE JUST NOT COMFORTABLE TO DRIVE ON. I PAID MORE THAN I FELT WAS APPROPRIATE FOR 4 NEW FIRESTONE DESTINATION LE3 TIRES, BUT THE IMMEDIATE DIFFERENCE IN HOW THE VEHICLE FELT, SOUNDED, AND HANDLED, QUICKLY OFFSET THE FEELING OF THE HIGH COST. I WOULD DEFINITELY DO IT AGAIN. THESE TIRES ARE WELL WORTH IT.

Bad tires defective

I bought these tires from Firestone and only had them a little over a year after the first 6 months I did a wheel alignment .. then my second alignment about 7 months after and found both front tires inner side bald and threading out . I went to firstone to complain and they basically said that it's not a tire issues .. of course they would say that ... I showed them my wheel alignment report but since I didn't have my first report they there is nothing they can do .... I will never buy or do business with Firestone again ... stay clear of Firestone

So Far, So Good

Admittedly, I have a very limited experience so far with these tires to offer a comprehensive review but so far, so good. I needed to replace the factory included Dunlops on my RAV4 and with the vehicle being one of THE most popular on the roads today, there are a myriad of tire choices so there was a lot of comparing to do. I've always like Bridgestone/Firestone tires and have had good experiences with them over the years so I focused on their offerings. The Destination LE3 seems to have the best combination of value, expected tire life and confirmed performance in most weather conditions. I hope they don't let me down but so far they seem to be a great option.

Firestone Service

Well the tires are great! I did a lot of research. However, very disappointed in the morons that installed them. A couple of weeks after installation I noticed a strange feeling in the drive. I stopped at a different Firestone, closer to work, and they discovered some serious issues with the install. First, one of the wheels was almost ready to fly off as 3 of the 5 bolts that hold the wheel on were so loose they were doing nothing. Secondly, they removed all the tires and check the balance. 3 of the 4 tires were 1.5 oz out of balance. That is major! This Firestone place repaired everything, rebalanced the tires and sent me on my way with no charge. So, one bad Firestone experience was replaced by a good Firestone experience.

Didn't even get 50k miles out of them

Outer and inner tread wore before the center. I had alignment checked and it was great from the time we got them till now. I have proof to show it. Tire pressure stayed the same the whole time"I have tpms sensors". In the snow they had a hard time taking off at a stop. We bought them last year and I have 2 tires that need replaced and two that are getting close.

Jeep on Grooved highways

I find my Jeep handles angerously on highway roads that are grooved, especially in winter. We have plenty in Michigan. The car wanders all over the lanes and really have to have 2 hands on the wheel at all times. Have had car checked at Jeep dealership for bad wheel bearing,tires balanced and rotated, and now they put two new tires on(as a goodwill gesture).. no difference in the drive. Firestone dealership could not test drive due to employee shortage. Unsatifactory response from 1-800 customer care/warrenty.Dangerous would not recommend, and definately will not buy Firestone again.
