What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

How scores work

Relative score: 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests: 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews: 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 35 owner reviews found online.

The Continental ContiCrossContact LX receives highly polarized feedback, often serving as a polarizing factory-fitted OEM tire. While some users praise its dry-road handling, quiet ride, and value, a significant portion of owners report severe dissatisfaction regarding wet-weather traction, hydroplaning, and inconsistent tread life.

Pros

Strong dry-road grip and handling performance
Quiet and comfortable ride quality on pavement
Competitive price point compared to premium alternatives
Good initial feedback and steering response

Cons

Poor wet-weather performance, including hydroplaning and sliding
Inconsistent and often premature tread wear
Susceptibility to uneven wear patterns
Lack of confidence in winter or slushy conditions

Worth knowing

Owners of modern SUVs like the Volvo XC60 and Jeep Cherokee frequently report dissatisfaction with the tire's longevity and wet-weather safety when fitted as OEM equipment.
Long-term durability appears highly variable, with some users reporting 60,000km+ of life while others experience failure or significant wear before 20,000 miles.
