Sumitomo Encounter AT Tires
The Sumitomo Encounter AT is an all terrain, all season tire made for SUVs and light trucks. Sumitomo offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with new tires. The stronger compound and the ideal tread design improve the length of the usability. This enables the tire to ensure a slower and even wear across the tread area, boosting the service and tread life.
The tread’s center block pattern maintains surface contact at all times. This enables the tire to boost the steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the tire is able to upgrade the driver’s control over the vehicle. The strengthened internal structure allows the tire to boost the load and driving durability, as it prevents the tire’s deformation under heavy load pressure.
The Sumitomo Encounter AT enhances the all terrain traction by utilizing the specialized tread design. The durable all terrain compound and the optimized tread block placement enhance the soft, loose, and uneven terrain traction while the tires are in motion. This enables the tire to improve the on- and off-road terrain traction, upgrading the model’s forward motion at all times. The self-cleaning ability allows the tire to improve its durability. The tire is able to eliminate mud, snow, and rocks stuck between the tread elements. As a result, the tire avoids stone retention by ejecting rocks from the footprint before they can drill into the casing. This also prevents mud and snow from blocking the surface contact, further optimizing the off-road terrain traction.
- All terrainThe aggressive tread design enhances the soft, loose, and uneven terrain traction while keeping the footprint clean during the drive.
- ControllabilityThe better surface contact boosts the controllability by upgrading the steering responsiveness and the driving stability at all times.
- Longer tread lifeThe stronger compound and the optimal tread design enhance usability by preventing premature and irregular wear formations.
