Does this tire fit your vehicle?

Tires are designed specifically for different vehicles and wheel sizes. Tell us about your vehicle or the specific size you want so we can help find the right tires for you.

Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season run-flat light truck tires provide temporary self-supporting run-flat mobility for a distance of 50 miles at up to 50 mph, even after a puncture has allowed complete air pressure loss. They are for drivers who want a combination of sophisticated low-profile tires and large rim diameter wheels to enhance their vehicle's appearance with all-season versatility, including traction in light snow. Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season run-flat tires branded with the M+S symbol are sometimes used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on 2WD and 4WD light- and medium-duty crossover and sport utility vehicles.

O.E. Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season run-flat light truck tires are typically purchased as direct replacements for worn-out pairs/sets of the vehicle's original tires. They can also be used for other vehicle applications in complete sets of four or axle pairs if available in an appropriate size, load range and speed rating to match the existing O.E. run-flat tires' performance category and specifications.

NOTE: Run-flat tires are only recommended for vehicles that are originally equipped with self-supporting run-flat tires and equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system.

Though they cannot be labeled as run-flat tires, tires branded with MOExtended or MOE on their sidewalls offer run-flat-like characteristics by delivering limited temporary extended mobility after a puncture results in complete loss of air pressure. Because MOExtended or MOE tires do not have the same speed and distance endurance of conventional run-flat tires, they should not be substituted in any situation where a conventional run-flat tire is required. To confirm what your vehicle needs, check our Original Equipment tire listing for your year, make and model or see your vehicle owner's manual.

...I live in the NW and we have wet conditions 9 months of the year, these tires have no hydroplaning issues in standing water. They displace water well and are great in both wet & dry conditions.

Excellent tires from the moment they were installed. Switched from run flats to these and the comfort difference was amazing.

Compare to my previous general tires these are much better tires. I love the wet traction and the way they are so quiet while driving. Since they are designed for SUV they seem more stable and still deliver very comfortable ride.

...These Continentals are handling great thru snow, ice, wet and dry.

I had Yokohama Scorpions before. Didn’t get the tread life out of them and as they wore they became annoyingly noisy like constant droning road noise. These Continentals are handling great thru snow, ice, wet and dry.

...In the snow they work great...

These are my 2nd set of tires for my 2012 Tacoma. My first set lasted many years with getting close to 100,000 miles on them. I did a lot of highway driving as well as beach driving. These tires held up great so when it was time to replace it was a no brainer to go with the same. It goes without saying that driving on ice isn’t easy and that would be the only negative of these tires but I don’t think any tire is good on ice.
In the snow they work great. In the sand, airing down you have no issues. I’ve never gotten stuck with these tires. I highly recommend these tires.

...better than expected dry & wet traction.

First set of Continental tires I have owned, these do require about 1-2 psi higher than the recommended amount by the car manufacturer for this size, once I figured that our the tires came alive, quiet, great ride with better than expected dry & wet traction.

...Ride is very comfortable but not too soft, noise is very low...

This is my second set of Conti Cross Contacts on this car. I tried some Pirellis in the middle and prefer the ride and tread wear of the continental. My wife mainly drives them just back and forth to work, but I’ll take the car weekly to log some miles and get it warm and for what this car is I find them to be just about a perfect match. Ride is very comfortable but not too soft, noise is very low, wet and light snow traction is great. If we get DEEP snow like the 2 feet we had last week, my wife’s car is staying in the driveway, but for up to 6-8 inches of fluffy stuff they’re great when paired with AWD or 4wd on a crossover.

...They're smooth, quiet, and are wearing evenly...

My experience with this tire has been excellent so far. They're smooth, quiet, and are wearing evenly. They feel much more stable and resistant to hydroplaning in the rain than prior set of tires on my car (Michelin Defender T+H). Two minor complaints: the tread does seem to pick up small stones very easily. I also have noticed the impact resonance mentioned in Tire Rack test videos over expansion joints and similar sharp bumps at highway speeds. Neither are a big deal in the grand scheme, but the impact noise is definitely noticeable on lousy highway stretches.
