I am in need of new tires for my 2008 Ford Escape. The Cooper Evolution that are on it are worn out. Can’t get those anymore as they are discontinued but also I’d never buy Cooper tires again after finding out they are made by Goodyear now. So I decided to order some Continental CrossContact LX25. I was able to get them for about $700 with my work discount. I love white lettering on tires as well. Huge plus.
My dad keeps telling me I’ll regret my decision for not buying Michelin but honestly not impressed with the Michelin tire options that were available plus being $215 with my discount they can keep them. $232 without the discount. And Michelin tires are an absolute nightmare to install because of the stiff sidewalls. I normally buy Uniroyal Tiger Paw as they are my absolute favorite tire and the best tire in my opinion. But not available in the size I need unfortunately however the Laredo were which I don’t know much about.
