Anyone Using:CrossContact LX20 with EcoPlus Technology

[WillBill]

My '11 LE needs tires and want feedback on 20" CrossContact LX20 with EcoPlus Technology.

Anyone using them? How is the fit on 20" wheels?

Thanks.

Will

I have them on my 17" as well, love them in the snow.

I had them for 2 weeks but changed them out to cooper ATP. They are quite and perform well on corners. But they had radial pull so I return them to get the ATP. They were mounted on 20x9 wheels but I believe the run a tad smaller so they my fit on your stock wheels.

I think a few guys were discussing these tires in this thread:

I believe at least 1 member on here actually runs them, maybe he can provide some insight

But it pairs so well with the 4runner's ECO light!

I have had the CrossContact LX20 (275/55) installed on my factory 20inch rims for about 2 years, 20,000 miles.. initally they rubbed a bit when backing up and turning, however as they have worn (or the plastic in the wheelwell has worn away) that has mostly gone anyway. I have been happy with the tires, and they have seemed to wear well.. I can see getting at least 50-60k out of them based on how they look today. They could be better in the snow, but so far are fine for the Upstate NY winters. I hated the factory Bridgestones.. they were junk, terrible in the snow, and were shot at 35k for me.

They are wider and look much better than the factory size on the truck. Because of this though, my fuel mileage has dropped a bit.. hard to say if the ECOPlus technology is BS or not, since i changed tire sizes.. however, I'd have to assume it is just marketing.

I'd like to get a more aggressive tire, however I am hesitiant due to the 7inch wheel width issue and compatibility with most tires... also, I really like the look of the wheels.

Hope this helps,
Jim

I was also going to get these tires too, but when I went to my local (Major Chain) tire store, they refused to put them on my wheels as they said the tire was not supposed to fit on a 7 inch rim...
Check with your local tire store before you set your heart on them.....
