Problem overview

Some Honda Ridgeline owners report experiencing benefits from upgrading to Firestone Destination LE3 tires, including improved traction and handling in both wet and dry conditions. These owners highlight that the LE3 tires provide a quieter ride, longer lifespan, and enhanced fuel efficiency due to reduced rolling resistance compared to the LE2 tires. Additionally, some users appreciate the advanced tread compound and optimized design of the LE3, which contributes to exceptional grip on various road surfaces. However, it is important to note that OEM Destination LE2 tires may differ from those available at Firestone stores, as the OEM versions are designed for a softer ride but may wear out more quickly. Therefore, owners are encouraged to consider their specific driving needs before making the switch to LE3 tires.
