Tires-Continental CrossContact LX20
Any thoughts on this tire for the GX? The reviews and specs on Tire Rack look really good. My GX is a 2004 with 80K. I live in FL so driving in rain and hydroplaning is much more important than winter driving. I only drive around 9-10K a year and saving $50 per tire over the Michelins is attractive. Here is a link to the tire.

Thanks pepe88. The reviews I found were mixed, but there were not a lot of them. Some of the owners reported what sounded like balancing problems, which can be an issue on the GX anyway.
Since you used ALL CAPS to say they were great, I assume they are running smooth at all speeds.

I would be concerned that with only 380K miles reported on tirerack there are reviews with the same issue.
Tires look good, but there are too few reviews, at least for my taste.
Regardless of which tires you buy for your GX, make sure you have them ROADFORCE balanced.

You know what happens when one says "I assume"...

Quoted for Truth! I just recently replaced my tires at Disc. Tire. When I bought my GX, it had BF Goodrich Rugged Trails and loved them. The new ones rode like crap...I swapped for Long Trails, but still the same balancing issue...DT will gladly try to balance but without roadforce, you're wasting your time...
