Tires Firestone or COMFORSER

Had the LE3s for 4 years on my escalade driving up and down the mountains and road tripping western US. A great tire, I took it through highway, pothole city, rain, snow, ice and even sand.

I currently have Firestone LE3's on my 14 Explorer. They have a little over 26k miles on them. 255/50/20's for $930 mounted/balanced back in 2021. Overall pretty good tires, especially for the money. Smooth, good traction in the dry/wet and pretty good in the snow. They did seem to get louder fairly quickly, but I don't think they've really gotten any worse over the last 15k miles. Wet roads seem to exacerbate the noise. Last time I looked at them (few k miles ago), they were wearing really well. I can't say I'd buy them again yet, but if they get us another 26k miles without getting significantly louder, they (or their successor) would be on the list. In the past I had OE Hankooks (good dry/wet, excellent life, absolutely terrible in the snow) and Michelin Premier LTX (good in all conditions, short life, overpriced for what they were).

Firestone has Suredrive tires that are basically rebranded Kuhmo Solaris TA71s right in your range. Good reviews on Reddit. I just bought a set today. Seem quiet.

The OEM Bridgestone tires were terrible....The Firestones have been great.

I got HP108s which were $400 total with installation they work just as well as my “Firestone firehawks” which was $860let’s just see if the tread last as long. They work excellent in the rain and I drive on country backroads and highway 6 days a week to work 120 miles a day and I drive like a maniac they’ve been holding up well

Ran Firestone on my old truck, same model number it came with. 65k, on the 1st set, 70k on the 2nd and had 65k on the 3rd set when I sold the truck.

Mostly highway driving, a lot of country roads. Tire pressure and regular rotation is what got me there.

For my cheap ass I think Indy 500 look the best out of cheap and commonly available in the US

Firestone destination le3 is decent and cheap tire there, a lot of sizes. Is the tire amazing? Fuck no, but has great wet traction, low rolling resistance, and through the roof treadwear.

Heads up, the **Firestone Primewell Velera HT** tires are **JUNK**. I paid all most 1K for a set and less then a year later they started to separate. The store replaced one and then about 6 months later a second and third tire repeated the issue. Ride has always been crap

Avoid the Firestone on ridge, had a nail in a BRAND NEW tire and they tried to sell me 2 new ties, my car isn't even a year old and they tried to rip me off. I got it plugged up and will never go back to them.
