I checked on tire rack and the Continental CrossContact's warranty is "6 Years / Free replacement first year or 2/32" of wear, then prorated until 2/32" remaining depth" The Bridgestone Alenza's have a 5year, 40K warranty. Seems like the Bridgestone warranty is better (?).

 

Or 2023 NX RX 350h has 12,000 miles on it and check the tires today for treadwear and we might have another 5,000 miles. We have the original bridgestones. Will obviously not get them again.

 

My 24'NX has been running them for a year plus. There have been no issues or complaints. With the size of the trunk area getting a spare kit seems a waste to me, especially if we need to put other items in the trunk. I'd rather have the peace of mind that my wife would be able to get somewhere instead of being on the road waiting for AAA.
