Product Details

The Sumitomo Encounter AT2 is an all-terrain tire designed for CUVs, SUVs, and pickup trucks that delivers all-season drivability and off-road durability. This tire meets the tire industry's severe snow service requirements and carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, making it capable in winter conditions.

Key Features:

  • Rugged all-terrain compound molded into a 4-rib symmetric, high-void tread pattern for performance on any surface
  • Variable-width shoulder lugs move sand, rocks, and debris out of the tread for strong off-road grip
  • Winter-focused 3D Wave Sipes in the shoulders work with independent tread blocks to provide biting edges for snow traction
  • Circumferential grooves evacuate water from the contact patch for confident wet-weather grip
  • Two-ply polyester casing beneath two wide steel belts with jointless polyamide reinforcement for enhanced stability and smooth handling
  • 12/32-inch tread depth and 660AB UTQG rating

This tire includes a 65,000-mile treadwear warranty for both metric and LT sizes, along with 24/7 tire roadside assistance for two years and a one-year road hazard protection plan. The Encounter AT2 balances rugged off-road capability with refined on-road comfort, making it ideal for drivers who need versatile all-terrain performance without compromising daily drivability.
