Continental ContiCrossContact LX2

[fireice2]

I phoned S&R today and they offered me the crosscontact at 9,800 per tire with 3+1 promo (265/65R17)

Any feedbacks or thoughts on these tires? Will need to replace my stock G902 on my Montero GLX 2014 very soon.

9,800 but you only need to pay 3 tires? That puts a whole set at P7,350 each. Really good value since other tires at that range are mostly from budget brands.

Continental is Continental. 😊

Wow that is really cheap. Continental is oem to a lot of premium euro cars like Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Volvo among others. Of course those tires are a different size for a different segment so quality may vary. What we know is the oems that are supplied to the EU market are good. Most likely the ones sold here will be made in the Asean region for proximity to market and built for our conditions so I am really curious about the quality as well.

There is a catch though, promo is only until April 25 and... My tires will still last probably around 5k-8k

How long will it take you to travel that last 5-8k km? If it won't take a year, just get the Conti and stock them up in your house first until you really need to change.

As long as the tires aren't exposed to harsh elements, its integrity should remain intact throughout its 5-year shelf life.

Yep, get them already. Most likely when S&R replenishes stock the price will be higher. Price of everything seems to be going up right now.

Bought a set since the current tires for the Montero already needs replacement. From the thread pattern looks like mostly road tires which are what I need. Availability is still 3 weeks from order.

Also got the same promo (3+1) for Altis tires last September, this was the Kumho Ecsta IIRC.

Good buys from SNR.

Which Kumho Ecsta? I was inquiring for my Altis before, they didn't carry Kumhos for my size daw (225/40R18).

Took a look and it's the HS51 (or 53?) and its 205/55R16.

Went there yesterday, they don't have Kumhos with that size.

Also went ahead and bought the contis. It was really the cheapest 265/65R17 at the moment. Yokohama was at 9.3k and Michelin was at 9.7k

Bumping this thread up.

Got the chance to do some long distance driving on extremely poor weather. I must say these tires grip the road very well on these conditions.



Tires are noticeably more comfortable than the stock yokohamas. These are pretty quiet at high speeds (120-140 km/h) as well in wet and dry conditions. More importantly, braking distance great on dry and good on wet.
