FEATURES AND BENEFITS
OVERVIEW
The Sumitomo Encounter AT is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. Sumitomo offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
The tire offers exceptional all terrain performance. The tread pattern design and the all terrain durable tire compound work together to increase the soft, loose and uneven terrain traction. The design features independent tread blocks, open shoulders, wide grooves and an optimized siping design that firmly grips the road surface in all conditions. The staggered tread blocks also eliminate mud and snow and eject rocks stuck between the tread elements to prevent stone retention and to avoid the footprint from being blocked from its contact with the road surface. The better traction and excellent road gripping ability ensures a secure performance.
The tread pattern with the added siping detail and the independent tread blocks ensures excellent all weather traction. The special tread elements find firm grip on the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather road conditions. The durable compound also ensures a safer performance as it maintains its flexibility even in colder temperatures. The special in-block sipes enhance the winter weather road grip, especially on snow and ice-covered road surfaces. The four zigzag circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint to guarantee a safer all weather driving experience.
The tire promotes a longer lasting tread life. The special durable compound and the optimized footprint upgrade the tread life and the tire's usability. The durable compound resists tread wear, which slows the tread wear rate down significantly. The optimized footprint manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure. The tread elements equally spread out the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking which prevent irregular tread wear formations across the tread area. The reinforced internal structure maintains the tire's optimal shape against the driving and load pressure affecting the tires. The optimized shape increases the model's performance in all weather.
The Encounter AT increases the model's handling. The tread design's center tread blocks and the reinforced internal structure keep the tire's road contact. As the tire closely follows the road surface, it upgrades its steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, it ensures that the model is easily controlled throughout the year on all surfaces.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
