The TerrainContact H/T is Continental's Highway All-Season tire designed for the drivers of pickup trucks, Jeeps, and full-size SUVs who want a robust, durable tire with balanced on-road performance and confident all-season capability. TerrainContact H/T tires are engineered to deliver a quiet ride and long life, plus sure-footed traction in dry, wet, and wintry conditions, including light snow.
Utilizing Continental's +Silane additives for enhanced traction, longevity, and cut- and chip resistance, the tread compound of the TerrainContact H/T is molded into a purposeful, symmetric pattern. The large, stable shoulder blocks help deliver confident traction and durability, and noise blockers reduce airborne sound for a more pleasant driving experience. Computer-Optimized Pattern Shifting further reduces the sound created by the tread pattern to deliver a quiet, comfortable ride. Wet traction and braking are aided by the +Silane compound, and the wide, circumferential grooves and lateral notches help evacuate water from the footprint to resist hydroplaning. Full-depth, interlocking sipes deliver stable handling and braking under heavy loads, in addition to improving traction in wet, snowy or icy conditions. Traction Grooves feature gripping teeth inside the grooves to retain snow in the footprint for snow-to-snow traction.
The internal construction of the TerrainContact H/T utilizes a two-ply, polyester casing to balance comfort and durability, and two heavy-duty, steel belts stabilize the tread for confident handling and durability. Dual, spirally wound cap plies further reinforce the tire and provide high-speed capability and handling.

...Perform well in wet conditions (I haven't hydroplaned since putting them on a year ago)...
These tires are a significant improvement over the stock tires. Pros: Perform well in wet conditions (I haven't hydroplaned since putting them on a year ago) Little road noise Did well in the snow (Slushy snow) Have done well on forestry roads, but I would hesitate going beyond that Improved traction and handling compared to stock
Cons: Reduced gas mileage (Initially, I saw a drop of 5mpg. After a year of use, I have a 2-3 mpg drop compared to stock) The tires need to be road force balanced regularly to maintain a smooth ride.

...I got to drive them through a lot of snow in the Northeast this winter. I found in Light snow and Ice not bad. They will get you up and through most of that with a little lateral slippage here and there...
30,000+ miles on them now, and about halfway through the tread. They are excellent in dry and wet conditions though I gave it a slightly lower score with Hydroplaning. In Dry or wet I never lose traction or grip. The tire is quiet and smooth. I got to drive them through a lot of snow in the Northeast this winter. I found in Light snow and Ice not bad. They will get you up and through most of that with a little lateral slippage here and there. Deep snow is a different story. Not nearly as good as the Falken Wilpeak AT Trail I had on my other Subaru (Outback). Those tires literally got me through 3 feet of snow in Vermont one day. The Conti is just ok in Deep Snow and is a HT tire not an AT tire so understandable. I think my preference is to have a jack of all trades tire so an AT or the newer All Weather tires may be more for me but I can't really complain about the Conti's overall performance. The Terrain Contact is totally a great Highway Tire comparable with the Michelin LTX MS etc.

I have a few hunting and fishing spots I go to at least twice a month and the tires are flawless. It's not hard off roading just trail riding but the tires have fantastic traction in mud or snow. Very quiet on the highway so far, and feel solid on the roadway. Tire Rack was great to work with, the customer service helped me in my selection, they were right on the money. Great tire, Great service

Experience the Continental TerrainContact H/T(01:01)
Highway All-Season tires are for truck and larger SUV drivers who stay mostly on paved surfaces. The Continental TerrainContact H/T is an exemplary example, with well-mannered on-road characteristics, excellent dry performance, exceptional wet performance, and capable light snow traction.
The Continental TerrainContact H/T has satisfied drivers and tested very well since its debut. Its excellent traction and pleasant road manners make it a strong benchmark and so it once again finds itself being evaluated along side some previously untested counterparts.
The previously tested Continental TerrainContact H/T is a well-balanced Highway All-Season tire, so we tested it against the newest, and one of the best, in the category to see how it compares.
