TerrainContact A/T LT235/80R17 E FR 120/117S
The Continental TerrainContact A/T LT235/80R17 E 120/117S (SKU 15506610000) is specifically engineered for super-duty applications where taller-than-standard sidewalls are required for maximum load support and ground clearance. The 80-series aspect ratio provides substantial sidewall height that cushions heavy loads over uneven terrain. The E Load Range construction meets the demands of commercial operators, fleet managers, and contractors who place a premium on reliability.
Key Features & Performance
The dual 120/117S load rating makes this size viable for both single-rear-wheel (SRW) and dual-rear-wheel (DRW) configurations, offering operational flexibility for commercial vehicles. Reinforced bead areas and a robust all-terrain tread compound combine to endure the repeated loading cycles and abrasive surfaces typical of construction and agricultural environments.
Vehicle Compatibility
Vehicle Compatibility: The LT235/80R17 is a recognized fitment for Ford F-350 Super Duty DRW (2011–2022), Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD DRW (2011–2023), GMC Sierra 3500HD DRW (2011–2023), Ram 3500 DRW (2013–2022), and certain Ford Transit commercial vans. Dual-rear-wheel spacing requirements must be verified for safe clearance.

Do you have a question about TerrainContact A/T LT235/80R17 E FR 120/117S?
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.
