About the 245/45R17 size
Wide 17 in sport size, W/Y summer and V all-season. Mustang volume keeps it well stocked from budget UHP to Pilot Sport 4S.
The numbers mean: 245 mm section width, sidewall height 45 % of that width, and a 17-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 25.7 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do 245/45R17 tires cost?
Expect $84–$99 per tire for a budget brand, $99–$165 for a mid-range tire like the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus, and $165–$265 for a premium tire like the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4.

What vehicles use 245/45R17 tires?
245/45R17 is original equipment on Ford Mustang (2010-2014, V6/GT base), Infiniti G35 (2003-2006, sedan), Chrysler 300 (2005-2010, Touring 17 in), Dodge Charger (2006-2010, base), Cadillac CTS (2003-2007), Mercedes-Benz E-Class (2010-2016, base 17 in), Ford Mustang Cobra (1993, SVT), Ford Mustang Cobra (1994-1998) and Ford Mustang GT (1999-2004), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 245/45R17 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Kumho Ecsta PA51 is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 245/45R17 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
