💡 Is the Continental CrossContact LX Sport 275/45R20 a Good Tire?
The Continental CrossContact LX Sport 275/45R20 is an all-season crossover touring tire designed for full-size SUVs and light trucks. It delivers balanced dry handling and reliable wet traction thanks to its asymmetric tread design and silica-enhanced compound optimized for highway use. Ride comfort is above average with well-controlled road noise, making it suitable for daily commuting, while tread life is competitive for its touring category. Rated Good by TireRack based on 472 consumer surveys, it excels in on-road comfort and year-round versatility but lacks the aggressive tread pattern needed for serious off-road conditions. Currently priced from $344.77, it is available through major online tire retailers.

The Continental CrossContact LX Sport 275/45R20 is an all-season tire, designed for crossover and SUV drivers who prioritize highway comfort and year-round versatility in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and compound focus on balancing traction performance with ride quality and noise control.
The tire features notched outboard shoulder blocks supported by a circumferential rib for enhanced steering response, while siped central tread blocks and independent inboard shoulder elements provide all-season grip including light snow capability. Internal construction includes twin steel belts over a polyester cord body for strength and ride cushioning, plus a flanged lower sidewall designed to help protect wheels from curb damage. Driver feedback points to reliable wet and dry performance with good comfort levels, though treadwear falls into the fair category for longevity expectations.
