CROSSCONTACT H/T

<p>Suzuki Grand Vitara,Noisy, good performance on dry and wet but definitely lower performance vs my previous Michelin Latitude Cross , probably not buy again</p>

<p>Excellent tire, this is the second season I’ve had them on my Nissan Qashqai, and I’m very satisfied with them.</p>

Poor foot print / very hard sides/ . Bad cornering.

Just installed these tires. After installation, I noticed a significant imbalance above 110 km/h. I went to a service center, and they rebalanced them more carefully - the vibrations decreased but didn’t disappear completely. They are still noticeable.
The tires feel stiff compared to my winter Michelin and are also noisier. They transmit road imperfections more.
Based on my experience, I would classify these tires as economy class rather than premium, despite how the manufacturer positions them.

I replaced all 4 tyres on my Lexus NX with Continental Cross Contact H/T 100H tyres. What a difference, I had Yokohama Blueearth E51 100H tyres on before, these are standard factory fit by Lexus. The Yokohama tyres are a very stiff side wall, offering little bump absorption on roughy UK roads. The NX is not really a sporty SUV to be thrown into corners, so the stiff tyre wall is wasted in my opinion, instead they provide a very bumpy ride with excessive noise which passengers complained about. The Continentals are so much quieter, offer a smoother ride and have a softer side wall. I can’t really tell the difference in handling, it’s an SUV so I don’t expect race car handling and never pushed the Yokohama tyres so I can’t really comment too much. I certainly won’t be going back to Yokohama Blueearth tyres.
