Continental ContiCrossContact LX

The tires were used for a total of 30,000 km on asphalt roads for 3 years. In Bursa, these tires were removed and winter tires were installed because they were unsafe in the winter. With the warming of the weather, I had these tires installed again, but especially on rainy days, despite the good tread depth of the tires, the vehicle tends to skid a lot. When the temperatures are around 15-20 degrees, I feel very unsafe with this tire.

These tires should be taken off the market. Purchased new Jeep Cherokee Summit Reserve summer 2024. Followed the recommended oil change/tire rotation. The 17,000 mile oil change appointment found uneven wear on tires. Called Continental tire regarding issue- they said it was from over inflating tire and it was a Performance tire. I never added air lb pressure but no mileage warranty because bought new vehicle. Nobody wants to admit (Jeep/Continental) these are junk. Ive never had a tire howl or end it’s life this fast. I’ll never buy a new vehicle again without asking about tires and mileage warranty. Continental doesn’t stand behind its tires…

These came on my Volvo XC 60 recharge. I live in Indiana and we got our first snow of the season the other day and the car was all over the place. Slipped pulling in the driveway. Slipped every time I accelerated. Slipped every time I had to stop. It was like was on summer performance tires.

Despite those tyres provide driving confidence, they got very damaged before 3 years of use and 30.000 km with no offroad use. Also, Continental rejected the warranty request.

I will never buy another set of these. These came factory fitted. Slippery like a fish! Hydroplane on the shallowest sheet of water on the road. Scary !! Takes forever to get to destinations whenever it rains cause I'll be slipping and sliding everywhere. Very dangerous tires. I threw them away even with a balance of 50% tread. The new Michelin Primacy SUV+ is night and day compared to these Conti.

Great, sticky tires. First set lasted 27k miles. Second set are dead at 20k miles. Not gonna buy again.

Well, the tyres are terrible on the wet surface, especially sliding too much at the curved road. Even braking on strait wet road is teryfiing experience. Something better on dry road. I could not recomende that model. For sure I will not buy them next time. Even concidering to replace them immidiatelly.

My 2013 Dacia Duster Laureate mileage 41,000 has the original tyres fitted, Tyres Continental Cross Contact LX M+S 215/65R16 98H. My last MOT 30/03/23 I was advised tyres will soon require changing. Owned the car from new, very reluctant to change, so it's new tyres.

Pretty good tire until unusual wear pattern starting show on 3 of the 4 tires. They were on a brand new Volvo XC60 T6 AWD(2019) and had to be changed out at 29k miles. No warranty since it was a new car purchase. On my way to try a set of Pirelli Pzero A/S tires. I drive almost exclusively on California freeways.

Worst tire I have ever had! We started to notice premature wear at 25,000 Kim’s, by 35,000 the wear was down to 2/32 and 3/32 and the foam core delaminated from the rubber. I have never had to replace tires on a brand new vehicle this early!

The tyres were good initially but after approximately 5000 miles they started to become vague, especially during wet cornering. This reduces driving speeds in the wet. The tyres are wearing very well, with the tread even across all four tyres. The tyres probably have about 50% life remaining which is excellent. They are standing up well to rough roads and to potholes.

Great tyre. Good dry and wet grip. Excellent aquaplanning resistance, feels very safe. Good fuel consumption rating ... A little noisy on motorways ...
Would buy again but probably replaced by LX2?

These Continental Cross Contact LX on my CRV were the original OEM tyre fitted. I have fitted another two pairs since I bought the vehicle new. First front pair lasted 23,000 miles, then fitted four new all round at 50,000 miles. The Continentals wear quicker than the Michelins on my previous CRV I owned, but give far more grip in the wet and the dry. In snow they are reasonably good, although not up to the standard of a full winter tyre. They are relatively quiet, give reasonable feedback and I will certainly be buying them again when the need arises.

Good in all aspects. Perhaps it has coincided that I punctured more than with other tires. A little weak in compound and sidewalls.

I have had the factory installed Continental Cross Contact Sport tires on my 2013 Mercedes ML 350. This is the second ML 350 I have owned. In total I have had 5 sidewall failures on the Continental tires. I have used both Micheline and Pirelli tires as replacement tires on these vehicles and never had a problem.
Granted I take my vehicle on gravel roads to a fishing club I belong to but I have been going there for over 30 years as have 40 other members and I have never had a problem with any other vehicle or tire combination. No other member has ever had a sidewall failure. Both Mercedes and Continental refuse to take this issue seriously. I can only imagine that the Continental tires are poorly constructed or they are inadequate for this vehicle.
