Sumitomo Encounter HT 2 – 275/65 R18 116T TL is a highway-terrain SUV tyre engineered for drivers who prioritise ride comfort, durability, and stable on-road performance. It features a symmetric tread pattern designed to maintain consistent road contact, ensuring even tread wear and predictable steering response under varying load conditions. Wide circumferential grooves improve water evacuation, enhancing wet-road traction and reducing the risk of aquaplaning. The 65-profile sidewall provides improved ride comfort and impact absorption on uneven road surfaces. With a 116T load and speed rating, the Encounter HT 2 is well suited for mid-size and full-size SUVs used primarily on paved roads and highways.
