Review summary

AI-generated from verified customer reviews.
The Sumitomo Encounter AT tires have received generally positive reviews, with some mixed feedback on specific performance aspects.
The Sumitomo Encounter AT tires appear to be a good all-around choice for drivers seeking a balance of on-road comfort and light off-road capability. They perform well in most conditions, especially on dry and wet pavement, and offer a quiet ride for an all-terrain tire. However, their performance in deep mud and heavy snow may not meet the needs of more demanding off-road enthusiasts. The tires seem to offer good value for their price point, making them an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers.

This is my 3rd set of this brand. No isues

Long tread life. Just rotate them per manufacturer's instructions. Smooth ride for all terrain tires. Excellent traction on snow and in mud. Clean out very well

Balanced well, normal A/T road noise

Sidewall and tread pattern make for an awesome looking tire. Hooks up well in the snow. Balanced perfectly.

0 out of 10 in snow

Unfortunately, my experience with these and the 1st snow fall of the year has been horrible. (3pmsf) and cant handle a couple centimeters of snow. Would not recommend for any snowy roads. Overall a good tire so far, except with snow.

Quiet, smooth ride, great traction

Had to set of these on my 2017 jeep wrangler and love them so I decided to put a set on my 4Runner too. Not sure about tread wear because only had about 10k miles on them before I sold Jeep but they still looked brand new.

TERRIBLE TIRES

I was sold FIVE tires that are almost TWO years old. Date code on one tire is 0622, another is 0922. Sixth and ninth week of 2022?? And I ordered them in August 2023. That's insane. Not only that, I cannot get them balanced. They are so out of round. No traction on DRY pavement. No traction whatsoever on dirt. Rain? Forget about it. 0/10 will not buy this brand ever again and definitely not buying from here again.

These Tires are are great for all terrain.

I purchased these tires 2500 miles ago for my '23 Nissan Frontier and they out-perform in rain and dry weather. The noise level is not bad at all and the comfort level ranks as high as a pick-up truck can do. I would highly recommend these tires for quality and price point.

Sunitomo for my Wrangler

I absolutely love the Sumitomo tires that I ordered from Simple Tire for my 2017 Jeep Wrangler. They ride nice and they do the job on and off road for what I need.
