Mine came with the Firestone Destination LE2 and I was going to take them off immediately but they ride nice and are quiet, 20k on them now and they have 7/32” left. They came with 11/32” so if they keep wearing at the same rate they’ll be at 3/32” at 40k and it’ll be time to replace them. They’ve got a 60k treadwear warranty but I live in AZ and the heat is rough on tires.

Pros: ride nice, quiet
Cons: heat is rough
Mileage: 20000 km

They’re $30 cheaper per tire than Firestone Fuel fighter. I’ve only read one review and that was a Tesla owner, he seemed happy with them.

Pros: cheaper than Firestone

I moved up to Firestone destination LE3 because it is mostly a daily driver for me. If you want a good all season with excellent wet traction and long treadlife and you don't need snow tires, I recommend the LE3. Night and day difference. WV is quite rainy, so I always go for wet traction.

Pros: excellent wet traction, long treadlife
Vehicle: Ford

I got some Firestone Destination XTs about 1k miles ago in the stock size. I wanted LT tires for the stability towing. So far they are working great. Way better off road and wet traction then the stock Pirelli Scorpions. But they hang on to gravel bad.

Pros: better off road, wet traction
Cons: hang on to gravel
Mileage: 1609 km

I had them on my excursion and while they do ride nice and look cool they will be a hit on mpg, as all AT tires will. And this is where you have to be honest with yourself, we all want to pretend that we take our SUV, off-road, and have adventures with it but, if I’m being real with myself, 95% of its time on road and that other 5% of the time is not a trail that would require an aggressive tire. I saw a decrease of 15% on both of the SUVs I traded a highway oriented tire for an AT tire. And in all honesty it’s definitely not worth that fuel economy loss. Yeah sure they look cool but now in my jeep grand Cherokee V6, I struggle to get 21 miles per gallon on the highway when on the OE tires I could easily get 25. That really adds up to a lot of Extra fuel

Pros: ride nice, look cool
Cons: hit on mpg

Hated these Firestone’s on my e30. Got very noisy when older, grip was inferior to a even a 10mm smaller width fallen rt615.

Cons: noisy when older, inferior grip
