TerrainContact A/T 245/65R17 FR 107T
The Continental TerrainContact A/T 245/65R17 107T (SKU 15506800000) bridges the gap between comfort-oriented all-season tires and aggressive off-road rubber. Its 245 mm section width provides a broad contact patch that enhances cornering stability and braking response on dry pavement, while the 65-series sidewall adds meaningful off-road cushioning. The 107T load index covers typical half-ton payload demands with ease.
Key Features & Performance
Continental's symmetric tread design distributes stress evenly across the contact patch, promoting uniform wear and maximizing tread life. Lateral sipes spread load on wet surfaces and reduce aquaplaning risk, while open shoulder blocks evacuate mud and gravel on unpaved routes. Comfort Ride Technology keeps cabin noise low at highway speeds, making long road trips pleasant.
Vehicle Compatibility
Vehicle Compatibility: The 245/65R17 fits a broad lineup including the Ford Explorer (2011–2019 XLT/Limited), Chevrolet Traverse (2009–2017), Toyota Highlander (2014–2019), Ford Expedition (2003–2006), and Dodge Durango (2011–2020 base trim). Verify trim-level rim size and bolt pattern before ordering.
Why Choose This Tire?
With a mileage warranty and all-terrain versatility, the TerrainContact A/T 245/65R17 serves SUV families who want capability beyond the pavement without sacrificing comfort.

Do you have a question about TerrainContact A/T 245/65R17 FR 107T?
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.
