Leao Tyres 285/70 R17 Lion Sport A/T 2024

The Leao Lion Sport A/T 285/70R17 117T is an all-terrain tyre designed for light trucks and SUVs that need a balance of everyday road performance and traction on loose surfaces. Its 285/70R17 sizing, 117 load index and T speed rating provide a practical combination of load capacity and highway usability, while the all-terrain tread is designed to maintain grip across paved roads, gravel and moderate off-road conditions.

About Leao Lion Sport A/T 285/70R17 117T

All-Terrain Performance

The Lion Sport A/T uses an all-terrain tread pattern developed for mixed on-road and off-road driving. Its symmetrical tread layout provides consistent contact with the road, while the open groove design helps the tyre clear loose material from the tread during gravel, dirt and muddy-road use.

Wet-Road Performance

The tread design incorporates grooves and micro-groove elements to help move water away from the contact area. This supports traction on wet roads and helps maintain predictable handling during everyday driving in changing weather conditions.

Off-Road Traction

The aggressive tread arrangement provides additional biting edges for loose surfaces such as gravel and dirt. Reinforced tread and shoulder areas are designed to provide useful resistance against cuts, chips and abrasion when driving on rougher terrain.

On-Road Handling

Although designed for all-terrain use, the Lion Sport A/T maintains a substantial road contact area for stable highway and urban driving. The tread pattern is intended to provide a practical balance between off-road traction and controlled handling on paved surfaces.

Ride Comfort and Noise

The symmetrical tread design supports consistent contact across the tyre footprint. As an all-terrain tyre, road noise can be higher than with a dedicated highway touring tyre, particularly as speed increases, but the Lion Sport A/T is designed for mixed-use driving rather than exclusively aggressive off-road applications.

All-Season Use

The Leao Lion Sport A/T is classified as an all-season all-terrain tyre. It is suitable for year-round use in normal road conditions, including dry and wet pavement and moderate loose-surface driving. A 3PMSF severe-snow certification is not confirmed for this exact 285/70R17 117T specification.

Load Capacity

The 117 load index corresponds to a maximum single-tyre load of approximately 1,285 kg. This makes the tyre suitable for vehicles requiring a relatively high load capacity within the 285/70R17 size.

T Speed Rating

The T speed rating allows a maximum rated speed of 190 km/h. Drivers should always follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommended tyre specification and speed limitations.

Vehicle Compatibility

The 285/70R17 117T specification is intended for compatible SUVs and light trucks using 17-inch wheels. Vehicle fitment should be confirmed against the manufacturer's approved tyre size, load index, speed rating and rim requirements before installation.
