I'm currently away from the workshop (on holiday) so I don't have the specific info with me, but I believe it's the AT3, a light AT tyre similar to the Pirelli.Quote:

Hi All
I have seen them mentioned briefly in some other threads...... but does anyone have any comments/experience with Continetal Cross Contacts? :confused:
I agree, after the rain we've had over the last few days I was really impressed. I deliberatly hammered it around a shopping centre roundabout last night and they didn't understeer at all.Quote:

Great all round tyre.
The stability control would kick in before you got serious understeer.Quote:

In which case as you say it proves they hang on reasonably well. The D3's chassis and 4WD system helps of course. I was just saying the first indication of loss of grip would be the ESC kicking in, not really very noticeable understeer. Like most vehicles the D3 naturally understeers anyway.
I should add, that when on road, I like to run mine at least at 36 psi. I am sure I will got lots of abuse for this post, but I have found that although not as soft as some would like, for handling higher is better. At 100k I run at 40, and that how I like it.
Well mine are at 40 usually so no abuse here.
