Road-trip miles

We use our vehicle mostly to take long road-trips in. The previous tires had almost 50,000. Miles on them at replacement time. We take at least 2 road tips a year that are around 2500-3000 miles round trip. With my previous general tires that came on the vehicle I would get a solid 22 mpg. With The new firestones I get 21.8. I also notice on our first trip with the tires a slight vibration at around 79-84 miles per hour. I usually never drive this fast and I would only notice the vibration on the road-trip- in places that we could not avoid the higher speeds. I have an appointment for an oil change in a few days and have requested for my new tires that only have right at 5000 miles to be re balanced. Other than those two issues the tires are fine. We have driven through a lot of very hard rain and the tires did fine. I just hope we can get the shimmy or vibration issue resolved. The vibration is not bad. Just a slight vibration. I we didn't take road-trips I prob wouldn't notice it. But. This should not be happening. Thank you Jay B.

So far so good

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.

Great tire for a 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J - 225/70R15

Excellent tire with gorgeous white lettering. I instantly noticed better traction, ride comfort and noise reduction versus the previous tires. I would recommend this tire to anyone who has a vintage 60's or 70's classic muscle car on a 15-inch wheel who wants classic Firestone white lettering on a modern high performance radial tire.

Destination LE3 tires-I'm happy!

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!

Not Satisfied bad ride

Purchased these tires on April 8, 2022, I am not satisfied with the performance and ride comfort Of these tires. I brought a set in 2011 of LE2 and was completely happy with that set. These ride badly not completely sure if it is the tires in itself or not balance properly.

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.

So far very impressed!

So for reference I have awd but it snowed 12 inches overnight and many people were having a issues getting moving or turning and others having to abandon the vehicle where it sat in the snow but I had no issues (I did however use caution during stops and didn't have an opportunity to try and see how they handle abs kicking in but I'll update this when I do) also cannot tell if I've driven on ice as it doesn't kick out often so proceed with caution there

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.

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.

Fireston makes a great tire.

I've been driving over 2.5 hours a day round trip through all of my 37 year career. I've tried many brands but I always keep coming back to Firestone. I'm able to get over 60,000 miles and they handle the snow very well. Far better than any other brand I've used.
