Understanding the LT325/60R20 D size

In the size code 325/60R20, 325 is the section width in millimetres (about 12.8"). 60 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 60% of the width, or roughly 195 mm. R20 means radial construction on a 20-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 35.4".

The load index 121 means each tire supports up to 3,197 lbs — about 12,788 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol S certifies the tire to 112 mph under its rated load. Always match or exceed the load index and speed rating listed on your vehicle's door-jamb placard.

What the Sumitomo Encounter AT is built for

It carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, meaning it passed a standardised severe-snow traction test.

Price and value

At $371.99 per tire, a full set of four costs $1487.96. That is about 8% below the average price of the 20 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 60,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $24.80 per 1,000 miles across the set.
