Firestone Destination LE3 Product Description

This listing is for new Firestone Destination LE3 205/70R16 97H BSW Tires. Manufacturer part number: 005349.

The Firestone Destination LE3 is a highway all-season tire for crossovers, SUVs, and light trucks, built specifically for vehicles that spend their lives on paved roads. Backed by a 70,000-mile limited treadwear warranty, it is one of the most widely fitted and trusted replacement tires in its class.

The core engineering advantage of the Destination LE3 is Firestone’s TractionTech™ Technology. While many highway tires experience a sharp drop in wet capability once the top layer of tread wears down, TractionTech utilizes full-depth 3D interlocking sipes and deep circumferential Hydro-Grip channels that remain fully functional throughout the tire's entire lifespan. This maintains consistent wet braking and high-speed hydroplaning resistance down to the treadwear indicators. On the highway, the casing is structured for continuous center contact, keeping heavy SUVs and loaded trucks tracking straight without shoulder squirm or trailer-tongue wandering.

Frame your buying decision around actual vehicle use:

• If your crossover or truck spends 90%+ of its time on paved highways, suburban streets, and rain-soaked roads, a highway all-season like the LE3 is the ideal choice for cabin quietness, long wear, and low rolling resistance.

• If you frequently navigate unpaved trails, sharp gravel, or deep mud, opt for a dedicated all-terrain tire instead.

As a standard all-season tire without 3PMSF severe snow certification, it manages light slush and cold pavement confidently, but is not a substitute for dedicated winter rubber in heavy ice or snowstorms.

To achieve its full 70,000-mile potential, perform regular cross-rotations every five to seven thousand miles and maintain cold inflation pressures according to your vehicle's door placard specification.

Best-suited for: Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Ford Explorer, Chevrolet Equinox, Toyota Highlander, Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Honda Pilot.
