TerrainContact A/T 265/70R18 FR 116S
The Continental TerrainContact A/T 265/70R18 116S (SKU 15506900000) combines the wide 265 mm tread with a taller 70-series profile, increasing ground clearance and sidewall protection compared to lower-profile 18-inch alternatives. The added sidewall height is particularly valuable during low-pressure off-road airing down, where the tire must support the vehicle's weight on a smaller air column. The 116S load index covers both standard half-ton and heavier payload needs.
Key Features & Performance
The open tread shoulder sheds clay and wet dirt rapidly, keeping the tire self-cleaning in variable terrain. Interlocking center tread blocks maintain highway stability and reduce tread squirm, producing less heat during extended high-speed driving. The compound's high silica content ensures responsive wet braking throughout the tire's tread life.
Vehicle Compatibility
Vehicle Compatibility: The 265/70R18 is OEM or approved for the Toyota Tundra (2007–2021 TRD Off-Road), Ford F-150 (2015–2021 XLT/Lariat 18-inch), Chevrolet Silverado 1500 (2019–2022), GMC Sierra 1500 (2019–2022), and Ford Expedition (2018–2022 XLT). Confirm tire placard markings on your door jamb.
Why Choose This Tire?
The TerrainContact A/T 265/70R18 is backed by a mileage warranty and represents Continental's vision for capable, comfortable all-terrain performance on 18-inch platforms.

Do you have a question about TerrainContact A/T 265/70R18 FR 116S?
Yes, if you want an all terrain that behaves like a road tire most of the time. The TerrainContact A/T emphasizes a quiet ride, stable highway handling, and strong wet braking, then adds dependable traction for gravel and light mud. It is a smart choice for daily drivers who occasionally head off pavement. For extreme routes or deep mud, a more aggressive A/T or mud terrain will add bite, but you will trade some on road comfort and noise.
TerrainContact A/T is designed for year round use, with dense siping that helps in cold and wet conditions. Many all terrain tires carry the M+S marking, and some sizes in various product lines may also carry the 3PMSF severe snow symbol. Markings can vary by size and spec, so check the sidewall of the exact tire you plan to buy if severe snow certification matters in your area. For frequent ice and deep snow, a dedicated winter tire remains the safest choice.
Popular sizes include 245/60R18, 255/65R17, 265/60R18, 265/70R17, 265/75R16, 275/55R20, 275/65R18, and 275/70R18. Fitment depends on your original equipment size, load index, and speed rating, so check the driver door jamb label or owner manual, especially if you tow. If you are upsizing, confirm clearance at full steering lock and full suspension compression. A professional installer can recommend ideal sizes, recalibrate TPMS if needed, and perform a road force balance for a smooth ride.
Longevity depends on driving style, rotation intervals, inflation, alignment, and road conditions. With proper care, including rotations every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, correct air pressure, and periodic alignments, drivers typically see strong tread life for a road biased all terrain. The TerrainContact A/T is covered by Continental limited warranty and treadwear coverage on eligible sizes, with terms that vary. Review the warranty booklet for mileage limits and requirements, and keep service records to preserve coverage and maximize total miles.
For an all terrain, the TerrainContact A/T is engineered to be notably quiet thanks to tuned tread block sequencing and a road focused pattern. Any A/T can get louder as it wears or if rotations are delayed. Vibration usually points to balance, alignment, or a damaged wheel or tire. Ask your installer for a road force balance and proper lug torque, then keep rotations on schedule and pressures set to maintain a smooth, quiet ride.
A/T stands for all terrain. It identifies a tire built to handle a mix of on road driving and unpaved surfaces such as gravel, dirt, or light mud. Compared with highway tires, A/T designs use more open tread blocks, extra biting edges, and more robust construction for durability. They add versatility without the noise and rolling resistance of dedicated mud terrain options.
