Just put these Conti Crosscontact LX25 on my Hyundai Sante Fe. So much better than the Kumho Crugen previously on that wore out very quickly (got 25,000 rotated every 7500 miles) and not quiet on the road. Yes the $110 rebate did help with the decision. Put on around 800 miles and pretty happy with them. Like other Conti, quiet on the road. There's less road feeling but for a family car, fine for my wife.
The service manager of my local tire dealership told me these Continental tires were great tires. Never had continental tires before. The first time there was a bubble on the sidewall of the tire of course they never told me about the warranty or the class action lawsuit over it. So I shelled out $350 to have it replaced. The second time it blew out by the same company who sold them to me but a different location. They told me it should be under warranty and it took a while, but they ended up having no charge But I had to pay the $35 warranty in case it happened again and the tire and balance along with it. Not too long after that tire had the same issue (bubble) luckily I've been through it before and got it replaced for free, but not after a bunch of jacking around and of course, my time my effort and waiting for them to do it and the balancing etc. fees Here I am in July 2024 and another bubble on the sidewall the tire. I'm furious.

I'm furious. I called Continental and they basically said sorry they'll have to go through normal channels to see if it's warranted. Pretty much had a nonchalant attitude. So I asked the guy. What would you do if it was you and all your time and effort and $350 down the drain and because the first guy didn't tell you it should've been warrantied , he said I would just continue to let them replace them on warranty. Pretty much no help. So here I am waiting to find out from the third location of the same place who sold them to me if they will be warrantied. Never buy continental tires ever ever again.
I went with Continental PureContact LS. All of my looking and reading and personal experience and prices... this is what seemed best to me.
New tires are Continental CrossContact LX25 - researched with my very loyal and reliable mechanic. Fingers crossed these wear better.
I’m using this as my daily and it sees no track time, so I like to keep it fun, while also not making my wallet cry. DCC: 2 right from comfort Drivetrain: Eco Engine sound: Sport ACC: Eco Steering: Sport
Hilarious because I did for the first time last year with the same tires that came on your areton that came on my golf sportwagen. Absolute horrendous piles of ****. They are worse than the worst set of linglongs. They shouldn't even be approved for road use. switched to a set of Michelin CC2 and they are better in absolutely every metric by 250%. They are better in the snow than the contis were on dry pavement.
Continental contact urban in 2” or 2.2” Feels as fast as my race king black chili for half the price
Continental double fighters have been doing me good for nearly a year! Like 1.9 inch tires and have a good amount of grip but roll nice too
Continental race kings. The black chili blend is faster. 1.9 and 2.2 inch options. Fantastic tires
