Continental  CrossContact LX Sport

Don't know what everyone is complaining about. I have met numerous Santa Fe owners ('13>'15) who all praise the car and these optional tires on the AWD Sport Turbo. Driven in some horrible snow storms, some with blizzard conditions and never had any problems. Ice? Scarey no matter what you drive with whatever tire. These held their own. Wet Traction has been great in some heavy rain storms here in the Northeast. Hydroplaning Resistance? No Such thing as a great tire when doing this. Cornering Stability? Hey, it's a Crossover not a sports car, but it does handle pretty good. Give credit to Hyundai for a great suspension too. Dry Traction is everything you could want. The Santa Fe has 3 different steering settings and these tires respond well to them all.

Highly recommend rotating them every 5>6,000 miles with your Oil Change. At 27,000 miles, Tire Dealer says they are good for another 25,000 miles. Going to have an All-Wheel alignment and All wheels balanced to make sure. Getting noisier as they wear, but that's typical of any tire. Tire Pressure makes a big difference in Ride comfrort. Will replace them with the same tire.

The tires were a replacement for the OE tires (same). Old tire mileage was 18000 miles. Tires are overall satisfactory. Did not experience any snow driving. Wet diving was very good, noise was ok, but not the best.

These were OEM on our MDX. They are quiet, good handling, decent riding tires. Wet traction is good and is tested often here in Florida.

These have been rotated at every oil change (about every 5500 miles as directed by the car's "maintenance minder"). The tread ware is disappointing. At 27k one tire is at 4/32" and the rest are just below 5/32". They'll need replacing by 30k. Pretty sad on a family truckster that is never driven hard. This may just be an issue with low profile tires as poor treadware seems to be a common complaint with all of the tires that fit the MDX.

Ford chose to make these the OEM all season tire for the Edge ST's 21" wheels, and it was a good choice on their part. These tires have no issues gripping on ice or snow, and they give almost the steering feedback and predictability when on the edge of grip as the other OEM option, the summer-only PZERO. That being said, tread life was pretty poor, I'm scheduling replacement at 30,000 miles. Despite the poor treadlife, I'll almost certainly be re-purchasing these as the all season performance is good enough to make up for the short life.

These were OEM on my Jaguar F-Pace. In dry conditions they handled well. The vehicle cornering is good but not the stiffest sidewall out there. In wet conditions I had no issues with grip on takeoff but the AWD may have something to do with that. The winter weather conditions posed more issues for this tire. Ice traction was bad rates about 3. Light snow 6 and deep snow 4.5-5. Treadwear was horrific. 28k miles and they are in poor condition. All 4 tires are worn down and need replacement. Couldn't even get two winters out of this tire but just as well as they aren't the best cold weather all season out there. For the money Michelin LTX and Bridgestone Dueler's are a much better choice. Since I'm biased to Michelin the LTX will most likely be my next tire.

Tire was recommended by dealer who provided them as replacements to the OEM continental 4x4 contact as part of a "tires for life" program. Not a bad tire, predictable handling and handled snow and ice decently for an all season tire. Pretty quiet and smooth riding. Biggest issue with the tire is the tread life. The oem conti 4x4 contact lasted between 30-35k which I thought was sub par and these pretty much the same. At 65k miles vehicle is now on it's 3rd set of tires when mostly being driven around town with a couple road trips tossed in each year. Unfortunately, these were the only thing the dealer had in stock when replacing them again. Not expecting to get much more than the same mileage out of them. Vehicle would not pass state inspection due to the tires being at the wear bars at 4/32". I would have picked something else had I had the option.

I have a 2013 Kia Sorento LX. Bought these tires in July 2016, at 90,300 miles. I am now at 132,400 miles and told I need new tires. They drive well but I didn't expect to have to replace 60,000-mile tires at 40,000. Unacceptable. I live in the Northeast so we have snow and ice to deal with in the winter. Tires handle well enough. I did have to drive uphill one night during a snowstorm and I was hoping to feel the tires have more grip but I didn't. I sped up enough to get up to the top of the hill without hitting anything. Tires handle well during summer conditions. They perform well enough but they just have a short life span that my budget can't accommodate.

OEM tyres on my wife's 2016 Honda Pilot Touring, first time running Continental and have been very impressed. 48,000 miles of day to day driving in and around Houston, plus long road trips in Texas and to Wyoming, Idaho, Chicago, and Florida. Was very impressed by snow and ice capability for a non-snow tyre during snow/ice storm when we were in Colorado last year. Wet stability and traction is great during monsoon like rains we get in SE Texas. Dry traction is also great - though my lead foot can really chirp them off the line. For a big box, the Pilot can be really hustled along well, but the electric power steering loses a lot of the feel so its hard to really grade for outright steering response - they're H rated comfort tyres, not the telepathic W rated Kumho's I have on my G35 6MT. Very impressed with these CrossContact Sport's, only replacing 2 of them at the moment because of punctures, otherwise could get easily another 8000 miles out of them.

For the last 30,000 miles I have had Goodyear TripleTred tires. They had a very stiff side wall, very loud but provided great grip. I turned to Continental for my next tire because I wanted to try something new and the higher load rating along with the higher speed rating (even though I will never go 130 mph) leaves me with a little bit more confidence when driving/cornering quickly. The tire feels completely different from the TripleTreds I was using. They are much quieter, ride much better and provide much better grip in the rain/dry. I haven't tested them in the snow/ice yet so I can't report. They do have a softer side wall and as result steering response is down just a bit but still gives plenty of confidence. The Honda Element has one of the hardest stock suspension set-ups I have experienced but these tires are a perfect match because they soften out bumps while providing unbelievable grip and great steering feel. They only cost $116 each and for that price I don't understand why someone would buy the Michelin LTX for over $170. The money you save with the CrossContact LX Sport will make up for the reduced tire wear and in my opinion the CrossContact LX Sport is a tire for people who like driving while the Michelin LTX is a tire for driving people to work and to the store.

Tires are good for OE, about 22K Miles on them and thread is about 50% worn most likely will need to be replaced for next winter. Would expect longer life given my driving style. Overall comfort and road noise is good handling in the corners could be a lot better.

Not sure what other people are doing on this tire. These came on my 15 Pathfinder and I've put 13K on them and they still look new. When the tires were brand new I took it out and tried to climb the steepest hills I could find after a 12 inch snow. It didn't even slip. I did the same thing last week (now with 13K miles on tires) after an inch of snow and the traction was superb. Was comparing to the Blizzaks on my FWD car (which I took out for comparison) and while the Blizzaks were better, the Continentals held their own. I was honestly surprised. I expect to get at least 30,000 more miles out of these tires. Not sure what they're rated at but if you're getting 45,000 miles out of a set of tires, I think the tires have done their job.

And quiet. These things are super quiet, at least on the Pathfinder, which is, I think, a quiet vehicle. They offer a very comfortable ride. The winter performance was a total surprise, but I'll take it. I was going to buy a second set of rims and put winter tires on it but now I won't bother. These are plenty good at least for now. Will have to see how they do in the second half of their tread life.

This is what was on my car when I purchased it it’s a 2020 vehicle vandalism only reason I’m buying new tires I like the ride I like the handling and I like the rain response Florida has tons of rain.

These tires ride and drive great but the Tread Life is non existent!!!
I fully expected to get at least 30,000 miles out of these tires.
In actuality that’s not happening - I have just over 18,000 miles on my small SUV. The dealership while in for oil change is telling me I have have to change them already. I am down to the tread wear indicators. I don’t think I will ever buy a set of Continentals again…

12000 miles and they are 75% done. Totally unacceptable at this price point.

I will start by saying this is the tire that came on my Blazer when I leased it new, THEY ARE GARBAGE. 15,000 miles and they're already half worn down 6/32. I drove through a winter storm with them and was so stressed out by the time I got to my destination because the AWD Blazer was struggling to keep traction going in a straight line! Needless to say, I will need to replace these soon as winter has just started in NE Ohio, and Continental will not be getting any money from me. Any positive attributes the tire has are COMPLETELY overshadowed by the super fast wear, completely unacceptable snow traction, and the fact that a set of 4 is well over $1,500. Buy any tire but this one. Trust me.
