Sumitomo Encounter HT – 285/65 R17 116H TL is a highway-terrain SUV tyre engineered for drivers who prioritise ride comfort, durability, and stable on-road performance. It is designed with a symmetric tread pattern that promotes even tread wear and predictable handling, particularly for larger SUVs and 4×4 vehicles. Wide circumferential grooves assist in effective water evacuation, improving wet-road traction and reducing aquaplaning risk. The high 65-profile sidewall enhances ride comfort and impact absorption on uneven road surfaces. With a 116H load and speed rating, the Encounter HT is well suited for daily-driven SUVs operating primarily on paved roads and highways.
