OVERVIEW
The Continental CrossContact LX is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has some highway terrain, light truck sizes as well. Continental offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with H and V speed rated, and LT sizes, and a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty with S and T speed rated sizes of this model.
The tire offers exceptional all weather traction. The tire grips the road remarkably and offers safety in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The superb all weather traction of the tire is made possible by the asymmetric tread pattern and the Tri-Net Silica Compound. The wide tread grooves of the asymmetric tread pattern actively help resist hydroplaning by channeling water from below the tire's footprint, making the driving experience safer.
The interlocking sipes in the tread pattern help maintain the tire's grip on the road surface. This way the driver has more control over the tire, making it easier to manipulate. The better control over the tire means a more accurate steering responsiveness, which means that the tire responds more quickly and accurately to the commands of the driver. The interlocking sipes also improve the tire's high speed stability as they maintain constant road contact between the tire and the road.
The CrossContact LX's specially designed sidewalls guard the rim from any accidental curb damage. Protecting the wheels from harm, the sidewalls offer safety and security from damages that can harm the rims.
